Lantern lights bring warmth and character to a room, while outdoors they can give a porch, entrance or garden a welcoming glow. Their familiar framed shape works particularly well when you want lighting that feels decorative as well as practical, whether hanging in a hallway, beside a front door or illuminating a patio.
From clean-lined geometric designs and glass-and-metal lanterns to traditional four-light fittings and Victorian-style cast iron designs, the collection covers modern, classic and rustic interiors. Choose from finishes including black, brass, gold, silver and bronze, with weather-resistant IP44 and IP67 options for outdoor settings.
A Lantern for Every Setting
Lantern lighting works across a surprisingly wide range of spaces. Indoors, a hanging lantern can bring structure and character to a hallway, living room or dining area, while a smaller design can add a decorative touch to a quieter corner.
Outside, lanterns are particularly effective around entrances, porches, patios and gardens, where their framed construction creates a welcoming pool of light without feeling overly modern.
Classic, Rustic or Contemporary
The shape may be familiar, but the finish and detailing can completely change the look. Black and cast iron designs have a more traditional or rustic character, while brass, gold and bronze can bring warmth to both classic and contemporary interiors. Glass-and-metal lanterns with cleaner lines offer a more modern interpretation of the style.
Choosing for Outdoor Use
For outdoor areas, the IP rating is important. IP44-rated lights are suitable for many sheltered exterior locations such as covered porches, while IP67-rated designs provide a higher level of protection and are suited to more exposed conditions.
Always check the individual product's IP rating and installation requirements before choosing a lantern for an outdoor location.
