Description
The Mount Vernon Large Outdoor Lantern is a wall-mounted light with a traditional shape and a clean, uncomplicated design. It takes a single bulb behind panels of clear seedy glass, which carries a subtle rippled texture that catches the light and softens the glow. The black finish is understated and works across a range of home styles, from period properties to newer builds. It gives you a familiar carriage-lantern look without leaning too heavily into ornament.
This lantern is made for outdoor use and carries an IP44 rating, so it stands up to splashing and the general demands of an exposed wall. It suits a front porch, a back door, a garden wall or a path where you want a warm pool of light and a piece that looks at home by day as well as night. As a Class I fitting it needs an earthed connection, so it is best installed by a qualified electrician. A three year anti-corrosion guarantee reflects how it is built to cope with the weather.
The frame is aluminium paired with clear seedy glass, chosen for their resistance to the elements. The bulb is not included, which leaves the choice to you: it takes a single E27 lamp up to 60W, and the colour temperature depends on the bulb you fit, so you can go warmer or cooler to suit the setting. It also works with dimmable lamps if you want to vary the level. To care for it, wipe the finish and glass with a soft, dry cloth, always with the power off and the lantern cool. Avoid abrasive cleaners or anything harsh, as these can mark the finish over time. A light, regular wipe keeps it looking its best.

Is it suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. It is rated IP44 and made for exterior locations such as porches, walls and doorways, giving protection against splashing and everyday weather.

No, the bulb is not included. It takes a single E27 lamp up to 60W, so you can choose one that suits your setting.
Can I control the colour of the light?
