Faro Plaza Pole Lamp - Dark Grey

A modern lantern on a tall, clean lined pole

The Plaza is a modern take on the traditional garden lantern, pairing a classic tapered lantern head with a tall, clean lined pole. Where older lamp posts can feel fussy, Plaza keeps the silhouette simple and geometric, so it reads as contemporary while still nodding to the coach lamps that have lit gardens and courtyards for generations. It stands as a freestanding light for terraces, gardens and pathways, throwing an even, welcoming glow from ground level up.

The dark grey finish

This version wears a dark grey, anthracite toned finish across both the lantern frame and the full length pole. It is a quietly confident colour that settles easily against stone paving, render, timber decking and planting, reading as almost black at dusk and softening to a warm charcoal in daylight. The clear polycarbonate glazing on all four sides keeps the lantern feeling light and open, letting the LED shine out cleanly rather than hiding behind a heavy shade. If you are matching several fittings across a scheme, the dark grey pairs neatly with other anthracite exterior lights.

How it works

Plaza uses an integrated LED, so there is no separate bulb to buy or replace. Faro rates it at 24W, giving a warm white light at around 3000K and approximately 1120 lumens, a soft, inviting tone rather than a cold, clinical one. The LED module is built in and is not user replaceable, and this fitting is not dimmable. The body is metal with a transparent polycarbonate diffuser, and the lamp stands 219cm tall on a slim round pole finished with a circular ground plate for fixing down. It is a mains powered, earthed (Class I) fitting, so it needs wiring in rather than plugging in. Moonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician.

Where it works best

At 219cm, Plaza sits at a natural height for lighting a driveway edge, a garden path, a terrace corner or the approach to a front door. Line a pair either side of a gateway, run several along a walkway, or use a single lamp as a gentle focal point in a border or on a patio. Its lantern styling suits period and cottage gardens as readily as it does clean, modern landscaping, making it a flexible choice for both traditional and contemporary exteriors.

Questions People Ask

What does the IP54 rating mean for standing Plaza in an open garden?
IP54 means Plaza is protected against dust and against water splashing from any direction, so it copes well with rain and everyday weather in an open, uncovered garden or driveway position.

What does the IK08 impact rating add to Plaza?
IK08 means Plaza can absorb a reasonably firm knock without damage, which is useful for a freestanding post light in a garden, driveway or path where it may get brushed against.

How tall is Plaza, and how far apart should a pair be spaced?
Plaza stands approximately 219cm tall. For a pair either side of a gateway or path, most people space them to match the width of the opening so the light falls evenly across it.

Does Plaza need a separate bulb fitted?
No. Plaza uses an integrated LED module rated at 24W, so there is no bulb to buy or replace, and the light source is not user serviceable.
