Ravine Outdoor Medium Wall Lantern - Western Bronze

The Ravine is a 412mm outdoor wall lantern in a western bronze finish with a tapered glass lantern cage framed by metal edges and topped with a decorative ring detail. The lantern takes a single E27 bulb (sold separately) behind bevelled clear glass panels, which show the bulb directly while the faceted glass edges soften glare at viewing angles.

Designed for front doors, porch walls, garage entrances and pathway lighting where traditional lantern styling is preferred, the Ravine projects 235mm from the wall and carries an IP44 rating for protection against splashing water from any direction. The western bronze finish is a deep brown-bronze tone with subtle tonal variation across the metalwork, darker than standard oil-rubbed bronze and closer to aged copper in hue. The 203mm width and depth suit standard door surrounds and porch columns without overwhelming smaller residential entrances.

The metal frame is steel finished in powder-coated western bronze, which resists corrosion and UV fading in outdoor conditions. The bevelled glass panels sit in a zinc die-cast housing with a silicone seal to maintain the IP44 rating over time. Pairing the lantern with a decorative filament LED bulb (ST64 or G95 profile) shows the bulb as a feature through the clear glass, while a standard frosted LED or CFL keeps the light source less visible. The 60W maximum rating accommodates both filament-effect LED bulbs at 6-8W and traditional incandescent bulbs where still preferred.

What does IP44 mean for outdoor use?

IP44 provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm (the first 4) and splashing water from any direction (the second 4). This makes the Ravine suitable for covered outdoor positions such as porch ceilings, door surrounds and garage walls where the fitting is sheltered from direct rainfall but exposed to splashing and moisture.

What bulb should I use?

The lantern takes a standard E27 bulb up to 60W. For a traditional look, pair it with an ST64 or G95 filament-effect LED bulb at 2700K, which shows the filament through the clear glass. For a less visible light source, use a standard frosted E27 LED or CFL.

How is it mounted to the wall?

The lantern mounts via a backplate fixed to the wall with two screws (fixings not included). The backplate covers a standard UK outdoor wiring box. The 235mm projection from the wall allows clearance for door frames and porch columns.

Does the bronze finish corrode outdoors?

The western bronze is a powder-coated finish over steel, which resists corrosion and UV fading in typical UK outdoor conditions. Over time, exposed outdoor metalwork may develop a patina or slight tonal shift, which is characteristic of bronze finishes and part of the material's character.
