Description
The Galena is a 338mm wide outdoor chain lantern with a tapered coach-style frame in grey powder-coated aluminium, housing four E14 candle bulbs behind seeded clear glass panels. The lantern hangs from a matching grey canopy on a chain that adjusts from 662mm to 2221mm drop, making it suitable for standard porch ceilings and taller covered entrance areas.
Designed for covered outdoor spaces where an IP44-rated fitting is required, the Galena suits front porches, back patios under eaves, covered walkways and entrance canopies. The seeded glass diffuses direct glare from the candle bulbs while allowing light to spread outward through the four glass faces, providing ambient illumination across a 3-4m porch area. The chain suspension means the lantern can be centred over a door threshold or positioned off-centre along a covered porch run.
The grey finish is a mid-tone charcoal that works across both modern and traditional architecture, pairing with rendered facades, painted timber cladding and brick equally well. The seeded texture in the glass adds visual interest when the lantern is unlit during daylight hours, and the tapered coach-lantern profile gives the fitting a classical proportion that suits period and contemporary homes. At 584mm tall and 338mm square, the Galena has enough visual presence to anchor an entrance without overwhelming a standard residential porch scale.
The IP44 rating provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm and water splashes from any direction, making the fitting suitable for covered outdoor use but not for fully exposed positions where driving rain hits the lantern directly. The aluminium frame resists corrosion in coastal and high-humidity environments better than steel-framed alternatives.

Frequently Asked
What bulbs does it take?
The Galena takes four E14 small Edison screw candle bulbs, each up to 40W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED candle bulbs between 4-6W and 2700K for a traditional look.
Can it be used in fully exposed outdoor positions?
No. The IP44 rating protects against water splashes but not driving rain or direct water jets. The lantern must be installed under a porch roof, canopy or eaves where it is sheltered from direct rainfall and water pooling on the top surface.
Is the chain length adjustable during installation?
Yes. The chain can be shortened by removing links to set the drop anywhere between 662mm minimum and 2221mm maximum, depending on ceiling height and the desired hanging position over the entrance.
What other finishes are available in the Galena range?
