Description
The Royal Marine is an outdoor wall lantern with a black powder-coated metal cage frame wrapped around a hexagonal seeded glass diffuser, housing a single E27 bulb fitting (bulb sold separately). The lantern measures 462mm tall, 241mm wide, and projects 304mm from the wall, mounted on a curved arm that extends from a rectangular backplate.
Designed for covered porches, exterior walls beside entry doors, and patio areas where weather-resistant lighting is needed, the Royal Marine carries an IP44 rating against splashing water and solid objects larger than 1mm. The seeded glass texture diffuses light from the bulb while the cage frame creates patterned shadows across adjacent walls when lit. The curved mounting arm positions the lantern away from the wall surface, directing light downward and outward rather than back onto the facade.
The black powder-coated finish covers both the cage frame and the metal cap above the glass, providing a consistent matt surface that resists fading under UV exposure. The hexagonal glass panels are held in place by horizontal metal bands that form the cage structure, with the seeded texture visible through each panel section. The lantern accepts any standard E27 LED, halogen or filament bulb up to 60W, allowing control over the colour temperature and brightness depending on the specific bulb chosen.

Frequently Asked
What does IP44 mean for outdoor use?
IP44 means the lantern is protected against splashing water from any direction and solid objects larger than 1mm. This makes it suitable for covered porches, under eaves, and exterior walls where it will not be directly exposed to driving rain. It is not rated for fully exposed positions without overhead cover.
What bulb does it take?
The lantern takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED filament bulb between 6-8W and 2200K-2700K to match the nautical aesthetic.
How far does it project from the wall?
The lantern projects 304mm from the wall when mounted, due to the curved arm that extends the cage away from the backplate. This allows the light to cast downward and outward rather than directly onto the wall surface.
Can it be mounted on brick or render?
Yes. The rectangular backplate has fixing points that accommodate standard wall plugs and screws for masonry surfaces including brick, render, stone and composite cladding. Ensure the fixings are appropriate for the specific wall material and weight of the lantern.
