Outdoor Pendant Lighting
Softly luminous panels within a sculpted black lantern
A rounded rectangular silhouette, vertical metal ribs and scrollwork around the centre give this outdoor hanging light its distinctive traditional character. The die-cast aluminium frame is finished in sandblasted black, outlining pale faux alabaster panels and bringing decorative definition to classic and transitional exterior settings.
The panels soften the included E26 / E27 bulb, creating an atmospheric illuminated appearance. Small and Large versions offer fixture heights of 35 cm / 13.8″ and 50 cm / 19.7″, while adjustable chain suspension of up to 150 cm / 59″ provides flexibility when establishing the hanging position.
Design & Illumination
Curved framing with a decorative centre
The aluminium ribs follow the tall, rounded body, giving the lantern a clear structural outline. Scrollwork across the centre and ornamentation below add traditional detail, while the repeated framing carries the design around the enclosure for interest from multiple viewpoints.
Sandblasted black metalwork contrasts with the lighter faux alabaster panels. As the panels glow, the curved ribs and central motifs remain clearly defined, giving the illuminated lantern depth without overwhelming its balanced silhouette.
Dimensions
Two lantern sizes with adjustable suspension
The Small version offers a compact decorative scale, while the Large version increases both width and height. Fixture measurements and chain suspension are listed separately to help plan the lantern's proportions and hanging position.
| Size / Measurement | Imperial | Metric |
|---|---|---|
| Small fixture | W 8.3″ × H 13.8″ | W 21 cm × H 35 cm |
| Large fixture | W 11.8″ × H 19.7″ | W 30 cm × H 50 cm |
| Adjustable chain suspension | Up to 59″ | Up to 150 cm |

Size Guide
Choose the scale to complement the setting
A restrained choice for smaller entrances, verandas and exterior passageways where the fixture should sit comfortably within tighter architectural proportions.
The broader, taller body creates a stronger focal point for substantial porches and larger outdoor entertaining areas.
Lighting Character
Soft diffusion within a framed enclosure
The translucent faux alabaster panels soften the view of the bulb and diffuse its illumination across the lantern body. Their warm illuminated appearance brings an atmospheric quality to the fitting, with the dark framework remaining visible around the glowing panels.
Placement
Traditional detail for sheltered exterior settings
Installation
Hardwired ceiling mounting with an adjustable chain
The pendant requires a hardwired mains connection and operates on 110–240V. Set the hanging position during installation, allowing for the selected fixture's body height, chain length and comfortable clearance beneath the lantern.
Professional installation recommended. Electrical installation should be completed by a suitably qualified electrician and in accordance with applicable local electrical requirements.
Care
Care for the frame and diffuser panels
Switch off the power before cleaning. Wipe the aluminium frame and faux alabaster panels with a soft, dry or lightly dampened cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and harsh chemical cleaners.

Outdoor Hanging Lights
Common Questions
Outdoor hanging lights — also called exterior pendant lights or hanging lanterns — are suspended ceiling-mounted fixtures designed for covered outdoor spaces. They're most commonly used on verandahs, patios, porches, pergolas, entryways, and alfresco dining areas, providing ambient overhead lighting while adding a decorative focal point to the space.
Most outdoor hanging lights are rated for covered or sheltered installations only — protected from direct rain but exposed to humidity and temperature changes. If your space is uncovered or exposed to direct weather, look for a fixture with an IP65 rating or higher. The IP rating and installation requirements are listed on each product page.
They hardwire into a 120V (US) or 240V (AU) ceiling junction box, the same as an indoor pendant. The key difference outdoors is that the junction box must be rated for exterior use and properly sealed. We recommend a licensed electrician for all outdoor ceiling installations.
Yes, on most models. The majority of our outdoor hanging lights come with an adjustable cord or chain that can be shortened at installation. The maximum drop length is listed on each product page so you can plan for your ceiling height before purchasing.
For covered alfresco and patio areas, a minimum clearance of 7 feet (2.1m) from the floor to the bottom of the fixture is recommended. Over dining tables or seating, hanging slightly lower — around 6.5–7 feet (2–2.1m) — creates a more intimate feel. Always account for wind movement in open-sided outdoor spaces.
In open-sided covered areas like pergolas or verandahs, some gentle movement is normal. Look for fixtures with a heavier base or a rigid mounting arm if wind movement is a concern. Lighter fixtures with long cord drops are better suited to fully enclosed or sheltered spaces.
This varies by product and is listed on each product page. Many of our outdoor hanging lights use integrated LED and require no bulb at all. Where a replaceable bulb is required, the compatible type and fitting are specified in the product listing.
Some models are dimmable, some are not — check the product page before purchasing. Where dimming is supported, a compatible exterior-rated dimmer switch is required. Outdoor hanging lights can also be placed on a timer or smart switch for automated on/off control.
