Tournai 4 Light Outdoor Wall Lantern - Bronze

The Tournai is a 959mm tall outdoor wall lantern with four E14 bulb fittings housed within a hand-cast aluminium frame finished in textured bronze. Clear seedy glass panels on all four sides enclose the lamp compartment, giving the glass an antique bubbled appearance that softens the light output and adds visual texture when viewed from different angles.

Designed for large outdoor walls flanking front doors, driveways or courtyard entrances, the Tournai projects 527mm from the mounting surface on a scrolled bracket arm that curves both upward and downward in a double-S shape. The 356mm width and substantial weight of the cast aluminium frame give the fitting visible presence on tall masonry or rendered walls where a smaller lantern would be lost. The four-light configuration provides enough output for task lighting at night while maintaining a decorative silhouette during the day.

The bronze finish is applied over hand-cast aluminium, which resists corrosion better than painted steel in damp coastal or high-rainfall environments. The IP44 rating confirms protection against water splashes from any direction, making the lantern suitable for positions exposed to rain but not direct water jets or submersion. The scrollwork on the bracket arm, crown cap and backplate is cast into the metal rather than applied, so the detail remains sharp over time. Each of the four E14 bulbs can be up to 60W, giving flexibility to choose between warm filament bulbs for a period look or LED equivalents for lower running costs.

What wall size does the Tournai suit?

The 959mm height and 527mm projection make this a large lantern suited to walls over 3m tall, typically flanking double front doors, garage doors or full-height courtyard entrances. On smaller domestic walls around 2.4m the Tournai may appear oversized.

What bulbs does it take?

Four E14 small Edison screw bulbs, each up to 60W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white candle-style LED bulbs at 4-6W and 2700K to complement the bronze finish and period styling.

Can it be used in coastal locations?

The hand-cast aluminium construction resists corrosion better than painted steel, and the IP44 rating confirms protection against rain and moisture. In exposed coastal positions with salt spray, periodic rinsing with fresh water will extend the finish life.

What does the seedy glass look like when lit?

Seedy glass contains deliberate air bubbles and imperfections that scatter light, creating a softer, more diffused glow than clear glass. The effect is visible both when lit and unlit, giving the lantern an aged, handmade appearance consistent with the traditional styling.
