Description
The Grand Tiller is a caged outdoor wall lantern made from solid brass and finished in satin nickel, a soft silvery sheen. A flared hood sits over clear ribbed glass, a protective cage wraps around the glass, and the whole lantern hangs from a sturdy arm with a ring at its crown. It is 16cm wide and 29cm tall, stands 22cm out from the wall on a round wall plate 9.5cm across, and weighs 2.6KG. It is rated IP64: dust-tight and protected from splashing water from any direction, which means it lives outdoors through British weather.
The maker suggests it for either side of a doorway or gateway, and we agree: a pair either side of a front door, a porch or a garden gate gives a house a proper welcome after dark. The maker designed this range of wall lights for outdoor places where an industrial or nautical effect is wanted, and says the maritime influence shows in the range's materials, designs and names. Satin nickel takes that seafaring look somewhere cooler and quieter than bare brass, so it sits as happily beside a grey front door or slate cladding as it does on a cottage near the coast. The maker describes these lights as rugged yet discreet.
Beneath the satin nickel the body is solid brass, and the maker says brass dome head nuts lock the lantern onto its weatherproof backing plate. The cable enters at the rear through the wall plate, so nothing needs to run across the face of your wall. It takes one E27 lamp, the large Edison screw (ES), so choosing the colour and brightness of the bulb is up to you. A mains light like this is installed by a qualified electrician. Before you order a pair, check the space either side of the door: at 22cm deep, it wants to sit clear of a door swinging open.

Frequently Asked
Can the Grand Tiller go outside in the rain?
Yes. It is rated IP64, so it is dust-tight and protected from splashing water from any direction, which suits an outside wall in British weather.
What bulb does this wall lantern take?
It takes one E27 lamp, the large Edison screw cap also known as ES, so you can choose the colour and brightness that suit your doorway.
How big is the Grand Tiller lantern?
It is 16cm wide and 29cm tall, stands 22cm out from the wall on a round wall plate 9.5cm across, and weighs 2.6KG.
Is the satin nickel lantern made of solid brass?
Yes. The body is solid brass with a satin nickel finish, which gives it a soft silvery sheen rather than the warm colour of bare brass.
Where does the cable go into this wall light?
The cable enters at the rear through the wall plate, so it stays hidden behind the lantern instead of running across the face of the wall.
Where would a pair of these lanterns look best?
The maker suggests them for either side of a doorway or gateway, and we like a pair flanking a front door, a porch or a garden gate.
