Byron Outdoor 1 Light Small Wall Lantern - Imperial Bronze With Copper Reflector

The Byron is a 305mm-high outdoor wall lantern built around a clear bevelled glass box with an imperial bronze metal frame and a copper-toned reflector plate behind the single E27 bulb fitting. The lantern projects 152mm from the wall, wide enough to give the bevelled glass panels clearance to catch light from the bulb and scatter it across an entrance porch or doorway.

Designed for mounting beside front doors, garage doors and covered porch areas, the Byron is IP44-rated for weather protection against rain from any angle and solid object ingress down to 1mm. This makes it suitable for locations with overhead shelter rather than fully exposed wall positions. The bevelled glass edges act as weak prisms, softening the edge of the light pool on the ground and reducing harsh shadows. The copper reflector behind the bulb redirects light forward through the glass rather than letting it spill into the back box, increasing usable light output by approximately 20-30% compared to a non-reflectorised fitting.

The imperial bronze finish is a dark brown-bronze with slight texture variation that reads almost black in shadow but shows warmth under direct light. It pairs comfortably with traditional brick, stone and painted timber facades. The Byron accepts any E27 bulb up to 60W, including vintage filament-style LEDs that show their internal structure through the clear glass. The fixture weighs approximately 1.2kg and mounts to a standard external back box with two fixing screws concealed behind the top canopy.

Can this be used in fully exposed positions?

The IP44 rating protects against rain from any angle and solid debris down to 1mm, which makes it suitable for covered porches and doorways with overhead shelter. Fully exposed positions on open walls without any roof overhang may benefit from a higher IP rating (IP54 or IP65) for long-term durability.

What bulb works best with the copper reflector?

Vintage-style filament LED bulbs in warm white (2200K-2700K) pair well with the copper reflector and show their internal structure through the clear bevelled glass. Standard LED bulbs work too but lack the decorative element. Maximum 60W.

What does the bevelled glass do?

The bevelled edges on the glass panels act as weak prisms, softening the edge of the light pool on the ground and reducing harsh cut-off shadows. This gives a more gradual transition from lit to unlit areas around a doorway.

How is the lantern mounted?

The Byron mounts to a standard external back box using two fixing screws concealed behind the top canopy. The 152mm projection from the wall means it needs clearance from door frames and downpipes.
