Quintiesse Anchorage Outdoor Wall Lantern

Choosing an exterior wall light that looks as good in bright afternoon sun as it does after dark is harder than it sounds. Many decorative lanterns either sacrifice build quality for aesthetics or arrive without the weatherproofing your project actually needs — especially on an island where the climate is rarely forgiving on metalwork.

For outdoor wall fixtures, the two things that matter most are ingress protection and material integrity. IP44 is the minimum benchmark for most exterior wall positions — it means the fitting is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm and water splashing from any direction. Pair that with a robust metal construction and a finish engineered to resist corrosion, and you have a fitting that earns its place on the spec sheet.

The Quintiesse Anchorage Outdoor Wall Lantern delivers exactly that. Crafted from solid aluminium — a material chosen for its combination of strength and low weight — the Anchorage carries an IP44 rating and a 3-year anti-corrosion warranty, making it a dependable choice for sheltered exterior walls on porches, entranceways, and outbuildings. Note that the warranty excludes locations within 5 miles of the coastline; for coastal sites in Mallorca, please speak to us about suitable alternatives.

The design draws on early American lantern traditions: a tall rectangular frame with a tapered pyramidal roof, four clear flat glass panels, a prominent arched carriage handle, and chunky corner knobs that give the silhouette its confident, grounded character. The Aged Zinc finish — a heavily textured, dark grey weathered tone — ties the whole form together, nodding to historic metalwork without feeling contrived. The clear glass allows light to distribute in a broad arc from the wall, making it as functional as it is atmospheric.

The Anchorage takes 2 × E14 candle-style bulbs up to 60W, or LED equivalents — bulbs are not included. There is no integrated driver or transformer; simply connect to a standard mains supply. For dimming, ensure any dimmer switch on the circuit is compatible with the LED bulbs you select, as E14 LED candle bulbs vary in their dimmer compatibility. Check bulb packaging or ask us if you are unsure.
