A traditional lamp post for driveways and paths
The Searchlight Capri is a tall outdoor lamp post that marks out a driveway, path or garden entrance with a classic freestanding light. Its lantern style glass diffuser and rustic finish give it the look of a period street lamp, well suited to traditional and country style exteriors.
Materials and Finish
The post and lantern head are cast in aluminium, finished in a rustic brown tone, and paired with a clear glass diffuser that lets light spread out in every direction.
How It Works
It takes a single E27 bulb, not included, so you can fit the lamp type and brightness you prefer. The head is fixed rather than adjustable and the light is not dimmable. As a Class I fixture, it needs to be earthed and should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
Rated IP23, the Capri is designed for outdoor use in sheltered spots, such as against a wall or under an overhang, rather than areas exposed to constant direct rain. It suits a front driveway, path or garden entrance where a classic lamp post finishes off the approach to the house.
