Newbury Outdoor 1 Light Small Wall Lantern - Lacquered Polished Brass

The Quoizel Newbury is a 311mm-tall outdoor wall lantern with a hexagonal cage of clear bevelled glass panels and a lacquered polished brass frame. The brass canopy, arm and cage structure are sealed with a protective lacquer that maintains the mirror-like polished brass finish in outdoor exposure. A single E27 bulb (sold separately) sits inside the glass cage behind bevelled panels that refract light at the edges.

Designed for porch entrances, front door flanking positions and courtyard walls where a compact fitting is needed, the Newbury carries an IP44 rating for exposure to rain and moisture. The 169mm projection from the wall and 177mm width suit side-of-door installation on most UK porches and cottage entrances. The polished brass finish provides a traditional accent that pairs with Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian-era architecture, and sits comfortably next to brass door furniture and letterboxes.

The bevelled glass panels add a level of detail absent from plain flat-glass lanterns — the bevel cuts catch light at different angles during the day and create subtle prism effects at night when the bulb is lit. The lacquered brass requires no polishing and the protective seal prevents tarnishing in damp climates. The hexagonal form and top hook detail reference 18th-century coach lantern styling without literal reproduction.

What IP rating does it carry?

IP44, which means it's protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and splashing water from any direction. This makes it suitable for covered and exposed outdoor positions including porches, courtyard walls and side-of-door installation where rain may reach the fitting.

What bulb does it take?

A standard E27 Edison screw bulb up to 60W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K for a traditional glow that complements the polished brass finish.

Does the brass tarnish outdoors?

No. The polished brass is sealed with a protective lacquer that prevents tarnishing and oxidation in outdoor exposure. The finish requires no polishing or maintenance beyond occasional cleaning with a damp cloth to remove surface dust and rain marks.

What's the projection from the wall?

169mm from the wall to the front face of the glass. The arm and lantern project far enough to be visible when the door is open, but not so far that they obstruct narrow porches or pathways close to the wall.
