Fasvette Downward Outdoor Wall Light - White

The Fasvette is a classic coach lantern for an outside wall, with a six-sided white cast aluminium frame and clear glass panels. The lantern hangs down from a curved arm, finished with a turned finial at the top and another at the base. It stands 35cm tall, measures 16.5cm in length and reaches 21cm out from the wall. It takes a single E27 bulb up to 60W, which is not included, so you can pick the colour and brightness of bulb you prefer. Its IP44 rating means it is protected from splashing water, so it can live outdoors on a house wall.

This is the traditional lantern people picture beside a front door, and it sits happily on brick and stone houses alike. Fit one either side of a door, by a porch or a garage, or along a patio wall where you want light across the path. Because the lantern hangs downward, the light falls towards the doorstep and the ground, just where you need it while you are finding your keys. Corner mounting is possible too, so an awkward corner of the house can carry one as well. The clear glass leaves the bulb on show, so a filament bulb makes a good choice if you like a glowing look.

The body is cast aluminium in a white finish, and aluminium does not rust the way iron does, which matters on a wall that faces the weather. The clear glass panels keep the lantern looking bright and crisp. There is no switch on the light itself, as it is controlled from a wall switch like most lights in the home. It runs at 220-240V, 50/60Hz and weighs 0.949KG packed. As a wired mains light, it should be installed by a qualified electrician. The installation instructions come as a download, so your electrician can read them ahead of the job.
