Product details
A black metal frame with clear glass panels, in the proportions of a heritage carriage lantern but without the scrollwork that usually comes with them. The restraint is what lets it sit on a modern house as well as a period one.
Clear glass rather than frosted means the bulb is visible, so the choice of bulb changes the character considerably. A filament bulb suits the heritage styling; a plain opal bulb softens the light and reduces glare for anyone approaching the door. The frame is finished in a matt black that copes well with a damp British porch, and the seals around the glass panels keep drips out without needing an annual respray. It suits a Georgian or Victorian terrace as readily as a newer build, since the plain lantern shape reads as classic rather than pastiche, and a low-wattage filament bulb keeps the glow gentle enough for a small front garden without glaring into a neighbour's window.
It takes a standard E27 fitting, so bulbs are easy to source and swap. The lantern form throws light through all four faces, lighting the area around a door rather than only the step, which is what a visitor actually needs. Follow the supplied instructions for outdoor installation, with wiring carried out by a competent person.

Classic, Not Pastiche
The proportions are those of a carriage lantern but the scrollwork is left off. That restraint is what lets it sit on a Georgian terrace and on a newer build alike.
The Bulb Sets The Character
Clear glass means the bulb is visible. A filament bulb suits the heritage styling; a plain opal bulb softens the light for anyone approaching the door.
Light Around The Door, Not Just The Step
The lantern form throws light through all four faces, so the whole area by a door is lit rather than a single pool underfoot. That is what a visitor actually needs.
