Description
The Monte is a large outdoor lantern that pairs a classic silhouette with clear cut glass panes. The glass carries an etched argyle pattern, a nod to traditional barware, which catches the light and softens the glow it throws. Framed in a matt black finish, it sits somewhere between decorative and understated, so it works as an everyday fitting rather than a fixture that demands attention. It mounts flush to the wall and draws mains power, with a single lamp behind the glass.
This is a fitting for exterior walls, so it suits a front porch, a back door, a garden wall or a covered entrance where you want a warm, welcoming light. It carries an IP44 rating, which means it copes with splashing water from any direction, making it a sensible choice for spaces that are open to the weather but not fully exposed to standing water. As a Class I fitting it requires an earth connection, so it is best fitted by a qualified electrician. The wider Monte family lets you match other fittings around the same property if you want a consistent look.
The frame is aluminium, chosen for its resistance to corrosion, and it comes with a three year anti-corrosion guarantee. The finish is black throughout. The lantern takes one E27 lamp up to 60W, and the bulb is not included, so you can choose your own. It is not an integrated LED, which means the colour temperature is down to the lamp you fit, whether you prefer a warm or cooler tone. It works with dimmable lamps if you pair it with a compatible dimmer. To care for it, wipe the glass and frame with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners that could mark the finish.

Frequently Asked
What is the lantern made from?
The frame is aluminium with clear cut glass panes that carry an etched argyle pattern. The aluminium is chosen for its resistance to corrosion and is finished in matt black.
Is a bulb included?
No, the bulb is not included. The fitting takes one E27 lamp up to 60W, so you can choose your own to suit the light you want.
What colour of light does it give?
Because it takes a replaceable lamp rather than an integrated LED, the colour temperature depends on the bulb you choose. Pick a warmer or cooler lamp to suit the space.
Can I use it outdoors in wet weather?
It is rated IP44 and made for exterior use, so it handles splashing water from any direction. It suits covered or partly sheltered spots rather than areas exposed to standing water.
Can I dim this lantern?
Yes, the fitting works with dimmable lamps. Pair it with a compatible dimmer switch and a suitable dimmable bulb.
How do I clean and maintain it?
Wipe the glass and frame with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners so you do not mark the finish. It comes with a three year anti-corrosion guarantee.
