{"product_id":"exterior-wall-lantern","title":"Black Exterior Wall Lantern with Clear Glass, Classic Style","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis exterior wall lantern takes on the silhouette of the facade lanterns of old: a black frame, clear glass, an arm that holds it away from the wall. At night, it marks the front door and softens the arrival on the front step. It is meant for anyone who wants facade lighting with old-world character, for a farmhouse, a townhouse or a newer home that needs warming up. Its IP44 rating protects it from splashing water, and its E27 base takes a standard bulb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign and materials of this exterior wall lantern\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is molded in a sturdy black plastic that will not rust or flake like painted metal. It frames a glass diffuser that shows the bulb and gives a clear, direct light. As an outdoor wall lantern, its lines follow the classic vocabulary: a cap, slim uprights, a tapered base. The arm is reversible: the lantern can sit above the arm, like a traditional outdoor sconce, or hang below it, closer to a porch lantern. You make this choice at installation, depending on your wall height and the look you want. The black pairs with charcoal window frames, wooden shutters and stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSize and installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 in (30 cm) and up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 to 8.5 in (13 to 22 cm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth\u003c\/strong\u003e: up to 7 in (17.5 cm).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 to 1.9 lb (0.45 to 0.85 kg).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe light mounts to the wall and connects to a 220-240 V cable outlet. Turn off the power at the breaker before any work and have an electrician do the wiring if in doubt. You will need a drill, anchors suited to your facade and a level. Mount it 67 to 79 in (1.70 to 2 m) from the ground, on either side of the door or on the handle side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe light\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe E27 base takes a standard bulb, ideally an LED to limit heat inside the glass. For a welcoming facade, stay with a 2700 K warm white: the light recalls a flame and flatters stone and wood. A visible filament bulb reinforces the old-world style, since the glass shows it off. To light a longer path, choose a brighter bulb rather than a cooler tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere to put lantern front door lights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the entrance, mount two, one on each side of the door, for a symmetrical facade; on a narrow door, a single one on the lock side is enough. On a patio, line them up every 6.5 to 10 ft (2 to 3 m) along the wall to mark the way without glare. Under an awning or a porch, hanging the lantern below the arm frees up headroom. As an outdoor lantern wall sconce, it also sits well beside a more discreet vintage light on the garage.

Wipe the body with a damp cloth, with no abrasive cleaner. Clean the glass with soapy water or glass cleaner. Twice a year, remove leaves, cobwebs and insects that collect inside, especially in the fall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Opalyne","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":59308944130383,"sku":null,"price":79.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1049\/8598\/5359\/files\/exterior-wall-lantern-opaline.webp?v=1793318705","url":"https:\/\/opalyne.co\/products\/exterior-wall-lantern","provider":"Opalyne","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
