The lantern frame is built from solid copper that will develop a natural verdigris patina over months and years of outdoor exposure, changing from the initial bright copper tone through browns and into soft green-blue tones. Two E27 bulb holders inside the clear polycarbonate lens provide space for filament or LED bulbs up to 60W each (sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for front doors, porch entrances, garage side walls and pathway lighting, the Chelsea's 125mm projection keeps the fitting close to the wall without protruding into walkways. The IP44 rating protects against dust and water splashing from any direction, making the lantern suitable for most UK outdoor locations including exposed coastal areas. The copper body is supported on black powder-coated aluminium brackets with scrolled detailing at the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Chelsea lantern is hand-assembled from individually cut and formed copper sections, so minor variations in finish and slight imperfections in the metal surface are characteristic of the manufacturing process. The copper is unsealed — it will begin tarnishing within weeks of installation and the patina develops naturally without treatment. The clear polycarbonate lens is impact-resistant and UV-stable, avoiding the yellowing and cracking associated with cheaper acrylic glazing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFitting Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e310mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e210mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProjection\/Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e125mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum Wattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSocket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE27\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBulb(s) Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP44\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGuarantee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 Year Guarantee\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the copper change colour outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Unsealed copper oxidises naturally when exposed to weather, starting with tarnish within weeks and developing a verdigris (green-blue) patina over several months to years depending on local climate and rainfall. This is a feature of the material, not a defect. The patina protects the underlying copper from further corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bulbs does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lantern takes two E27 Edison screw bulbs up to 60W each. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair the Chelsea with warm-white filament-style LED bulbs at 2700K to match the traditional lantern aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for coastal locations?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The IP44 rating and solid copper construction handle coastal exposure, though the patina may develop faster in salt air. The aluminium brackets are powder-coated to resist corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is it mounted?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lantern mounts on two fixings through the back plate, typically requiring wall plugs in brick or masonry. The electrical cable enters through a rear knock-out. A qualified electrician should handle installation and connection to mains wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Norlys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45665480573195,"sku":"CS7-2-COPPER","price":485.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/cs7-2-copper_c7531102-7551-452a-977e-22933dca5647.jpg?v=1721817078","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/chelsea-1-light-outdoor-half-lantern-copper","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
