Description
The Mathus medium outdoor lantern is a wall-mounted light built for the demands of an exterior setting. It pairs a black frame with clear bevelled glass panes, the fine bevelling running around the edge of each pane to catch the light. The shape is classic and upright, with a single lamp held behind the glass, so it reads as a traditional lantern without feeling fussy. Rated IP44, it copes with rain and splashing, making it a practical choice for doorways and walls that face the weather.
This lantern suits a front porch, a back door, a garden wall or a path where you want a steady, welcoming glow. It works well flanking an entrance in a pair, or on its own beside a gate or garage. The black finish sits comfortably against brick, render, stone and timber, so it settles into period and newer homes alike. Because the light comes from a standard replaceable lamp, you can tune the warmth of the glow to the space around it.
The frame is made from aluminium with clear bevelled glass, and it carries a three year anti-corrosion guarantee, so it holds up outdoors over time. It takes one E27 lamp up to 60W, which is not included, leaving you free to pick the brightness and colour temperature that suit your setting; the fitting is also compatible with dimmable lamps if you want more control. It runs on mains voltage and is Class I, so it needs an earth connection and should be fitted by a qualified electrician. To care for it, switch off the power first, then wipe the glass and frame with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners or abrasive pads, which can mark the finish over time.
