Description
The Tangier is a 457mm-height outdoor pedestal light in an olde bronze finish with a crisscross metal frame enclosing seeded glass panels on four sides. A single E27 bulb (sold separately, up to 60W) sits inside the lantern body, casting light through the textured glass which creates a soft, rippled pattern on surrounding surfaces. The pedestal base mounts to flat surfaces including brick piers, gate posts, low garden walls and entrance pillars.
Designed for residential driveways, front garden pathways and gate entries, the Tangier pedestal provides wayfinding light at ground level without requiring existing electrical infrastructure from overhead positions. The IP44 rating protects the internal fitting against rain and moisture ingress from any direction, making it suitable for year-round UK outdoor use in exposed positions. The 191mm square footprint fits standard pier caps and post tops commonly found on traditional UK garden walls.
The olde bronze finish is a dark, warm-toned metal coating that weathers gracefully in outdoor conditions without showing surface rust or corrosion. The seeded glass texture hides dust and water marks better than clear glass while still transmitting useful levels of light. The crisscross frame geometry is derived from historic street lantern designs and pairs well with Victorian, Edwardian and Georgian-style properties, though the proportions and scale also suit contemporary builds looking for a traditional accent.

Frequently Asked
What bulb does it take?
The Tangier takes a standard E27 Edison screw bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED between 6-10W and 2700K for outdoor pathway lighting that doesn't overwhelm the area.
Is it weatherproof for year-round outdoor use?
Yes. The IP44 rating means the fitting is protected against water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for permanent outdoor installation in UK weather conditions. The seeded glass and metal frame are designed to withstand rain, frost and temperature variation.
How is it installed?
The pedestal mounts to a flat surface using the base plate underneath. Typical installations include brick piers, gate posts, low garden walls and entrance pillars. The electrical supply must be run through the mounting surface (hollow post or chased into masonry) to connect to the E27 lampholder inside.
What other sizes are available in the Tangier range?
