Description
The Cleveland is a 1094mm pillar lantern built from weathered bronze finished aluminium with a seeded glass enclosure and classical urn-top finial. The single E27 socket sits behind clear seeded glass that diffuses light into a textured glow, casting soft illumination across driveways, gate posts and front garden borders. The IP44 rating protects against rain and dust, making the lantern suitable for year-round outdoor installation in exposed locations.
Designed for mounting on gate piers, low garden walls, and driveway entrance posts where a traditional post-top lantern suits the architecture, the Cleveland's 185mm diameter footprint fits standard UK brick pier caps and precast stone pier tops. The weathered bronze finish combines a dark bronze base tone with lighter bronze highlights on raised details, giving the appearance of aged metal rather than new-cast aluminium. The seeded glass adds visual texture when unlit and softens the bulb glow when lit, avoiding harsh point-source glare across paths and driveways.
The aluminium construction keeps the weight manageable for wall and pier mounting while resisting corrosion in coastal and high-rainfall areas. The classical proportions — fluted column, gently curved glass enclosure, decorative finial — suit period properties, barn conversions and country-style new builds. The E27 socket accepts any standard Edison screw bulb up to 60W, giving flexibility to choose warm-white LED for a period look or daylight-white for functional driveway lighting.

Frequently Asked
What does the IP44 rating mean for outdoor use?
IP44 means the lantern is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm (including dust and insects) and against water splashes from any direction. This makes it suitable for outdoor installation in rain, but not for positions where it would be submerged or subjected to high-pressure water jets.
What bulb should I use?
The lantern takes a standard E27 Edison screw bulb up to 60W. Most users pair it with a warm-white LED filament bulb between 4-8W and 2200K-2700K to suit the traditional styling. Bulbs are sold separately.
Can it be mounted on a brick pier or stone post?
Yes. The 185mm square base fits standard UK brick pier caps and precast stone pier tops. The base has pre-drilled fixing holes for bolting down to masonry. Ensure the cable run is planned before installation as the lantern needs to be hard-wired into outdoor mains supply.
How is the weathered bronze finish maintained?
The weathered bronze is a factory-applied finish on aluminium and does not require treatment or polishing. Wipe with a damp cloth to remove dust and pollen. Avoid abrasive cleaners or metal polishes as these may strip the finish.
