Cleveland 2 Outdoor Wall Lantern Small - Weathered Bronze

The Cleveland 2 is a small outdoor wall lantern with a seeded glass shade housed in a weathered bronze aluminium frame, featuring a coach-style silhouette with turned finial details and a scrolled wall bracket. The single E27 bulb fitting sits inside the seeded glass, which diffuses light while leaving the filament visible through the bubbled texture of the glass. The IP44 rating protects against water splashes and dust ingress, making it suitable for covered porches, side entrances and garden walls under eaves.

Designed for outdoor positions where a traditional aesthetic is wanted but space limits fixture size, the Cleveland 2 measures 415mm tall by 185mm wide with a 238mm projection from the wall, fitting comfortably beside front doors, on cottage porches, or flanking garage side doors. The weathered bronze finish has a dark, slightly worn patina that softens under daylight and picks up amber tones when the bulb is lit. The seeded glass creates a soft halo of light suitable for wayfinding and door illumination rather than full-area floodlighting.

The aluminium construction resists corrosion in UK coastal and high-rainfall areas better than steel or iron equivalents. The turned finial on top of the shade and the decorative beading detail around the wall bracket give the lantern a heritage coach-lamp appearance without full Victorian ornament. The E27 socket accepts any standard Edison screw bulb up to 60W, including warm-white LED filament bulbs that replicate the look of incandescent lamps while reducing running costs.

What does IP44 mean for outdoor use?

IP44 provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm (dust and small debris) and water splashes from any direction. This rating suits covered outdoor positions such as porches, under eaves, or pergolas. It is not rated for fully exposed positions with direct rain exposure or pressure washing.

What bulb should I use?

The E27 socket accepts any standard Edison screw bulb up to 60W. Most installations use a warm-white LED filament bulb between 4-8W and 2200K-2700K to replicate the warm glow of traditional incandescent lamps while reducing energy consumption. Bulbs are sold separately.

How is the lantern mounted?

The Cleveland 2 mounts via a backplate on the scrolled bracket, which fixes to the wall with screws. The backplate measures approximately 185mm tall and requires two fixing points on a vertical centre line. Fitting by a qualified electrician is recommended.

Does the seeded glass affect light output?

Yes. The bubbled texture of the seeded glass diffuses and softens the light, creating a warm halo effect rather than a focused beam. This is ideal for ambient entrance lighting but reduces the effective brightness compared to clear glass, so consider a slightly higher-lumen LED bulb if brighter illumination is needed.
