Description
The Cargo is a solid brass bulkhead wall light in an antique brass finish, built around a curved panel of clear ribbed glass. Brass bands wrap the body in tiers, with smaller glass windows above and below the main panel and a narrow glazed slot down each side. It is compact at 22cm by 16cm and 10.5cm deep, and at 2.4KG it has the reassuring heft of solid metal. It is rated IP64, which means it is dust-tight and protected from splashing water, so it lives outdoors in British weather all year round.
Its natural home is beside a front door, under a porch, along a garden wall or on a boathouse, and the maker says it is often supplied in pairs. The maker describes the look as bold and Neo-Classical, and says its range was designed for outdoor places that call for an industrial or nautical feel. The maker also says the maritime influence shows in the materials, designs and even the names of the range, and the banded brass and ribbed glass make that plain. The maker says these lights have been used in luxury bathrooms too; with an IP64 rating it can be considered for one, and a qualified electrician will confirm the right zone.
The finish is antique brass, and the maker says the solid brass body has an aged, original-looking finish. Solid brass darkens and mellows outdoors, so expect the tone to deepen gradually with the seasons. The cable enters through a gland at the rear. It takes one E27 (ES) screw lamp of up to 18W, and the lamp is not included, so you can choose the colour of light that suits your doorway. As a mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician. Pick up a bulb at the same time, and it will be ready to light on the day it is fitted.

Frequently Asked
Can the Cargo wall light stay outdoors all year?
Yes. It is rated IP64, so it is dust-tight and protected from splashing water, which means it lives outdoors in British weather all year round.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
Its IP64 rating means it can be considered for a bathroom, and the maker says these lights have been used in luxury bathrooms; a qualified electrician will confirm the right zone.
What bulb does it take, and is one included?
It takes one E27 (ES) screw lamp of up to 18W. The lamp is not included, so you can choose the bulb and colour of light yourself.
How big is the Cargo?
It measures 22cm by 16cm across its face and is 10.5cm deep, and it weighs 2.4KG, so it is compact without feeling flimsy.
How will the antique brass finish weather?
Solid brass darkens and mellows outdoors, so expect the antique brass to deepen gradually over time; the maker says the body has an aged, original-looking finish from the start.
Where is the cable entry?
The cable enters through a cable gland at the rear of the light, so the entry point sits at the back of the body, against the wall.
