Wellfleet 1 Light Outdoor Wall Lantern - Aged Bronze

The Wellfleet is a 321mm tall outdoor wall lantern from Feiss, featuring an ornate metalwork cage wrapped around amber-toned seeded glass, finished in aged bronze. The single E27 bulb fitting sits within the glass cylinder, while the decorative metalwork creates an interlocking teardrop pattern around the perimeter. The IP44 rating allows use in covered outdoor locations where the fitting is protected from direct rainfall.

Designed for mounting beside front doors, on covered porches, and flanking garage entrances, the Wellfleet provides a traditional decorative accent with functional outdoor lighting. The 186mm projection from the wall gives the lantern presence without obstructing narrow walkways. The aged bronze finish weathers naturally over time, developing a darker patina in exposed conditions while the metal cage protects the glass from accidental contact.

The amber seeded glass diffuses the bulb filament while casting warm light outward through the decorative metalwork, creating shadow patterns on adjacent walls when lit after dark. The E27 socket accepts standard LED, halogen or filament bulbs up to 60W (sold separately), allowing control over colour temperature and brightness. The Wellfleet carries a 5-year guarantee covering manufacturing defects in the metalwork and glass construction.

What does IP44 mean for outdoor use?

IP44 means the lantern is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and water splashing from any direction. It can be used in covered outdoor locations such as under porches, eaves or canopies, but should not be exposed to direct rainfall or used in fully open positions without overhead protection.

What bulb does it take?

The Wellfleet takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K for a traditional warm glow that complements the amber glass and aged bronze finish.

Can it be used in coastal or exposed locations?

The aged bronze finish is a painted metal coating rather than solid bronze, so it will weather and darken over time in exposed coastal conditions. The decorative metalwork cage protects the glass from wind and accidental contact, but the finish may require periodic maintenance in salt-air environments to prevent corrosion beneath the paint layer.

How is it mounted to the wall?

The lantern mounts to a standard outdoor junction box via a backplate that sits flush against the wall. The 186mm projection includes the backplate, metalwork cage and glass cylinder. Installation requires connecting the mains cable to the lampholder terminals behind the backplate before securing the decorative housing in place.
