Harte Vintage Tear Drop 0.46m Wall Light - Galvanised Steel & Copper Head

At 0.46 metres, this wall light is the smallest fixture in Harte's Vintage Tear Drop range within the Goose Neck collection, its curved arm and tear drop lantern echoing the old farmyard lamps that inspired the design. It is a tall wall light overall, measuring 910mm high by 650mm wide. A copper head sets it apart from the standard steel version, giving the fixture a warmer, more textured presence up close.

Galvanised steel and a copper head

The body and curved arm are built in galvanised steel, finished in gloss black to match the rest of the range, while the lantern head itself is formed in copper, left in its natural copper tone rather than painted. It is a genuine material change, not just a colour option, and gives this fixture a distinct look from the all steel version. Harte's guarantee against cracking, bending or breaking applies to the cast iron and steel elements of its products; as a copper component, the head sits outside that particular guarantee.

How it works

A clear polycarbonate lens spreads the light from the tear drop head, while the curved steel arm holds it out from the wall at a fixed angle, similar to the old gooseneck farm lamps it takes its name from. It mounts directly to a wall and requires connection to mains wiring. We always recommend a qualified electrician installs this fitting.

Where it works best

As the smallest fixture in its range, this light suits a front door, a porch, a garden wall or a gable end, anywhere a characterful fixture is wanted rather than a large lantern. The copper head adds a point of warmth against stone, brick or render.
