A Compact Lamp Post for Paths and Driveways
The Needham Outdoor Post is a compact pedestal lantern finished in black with gold detailing, giving paths, driveways and garden borders a traditional lamp post look without the height of a full sized column light.
Materials and Finish
The body is cast aluminium finished in black with gold highlights picked out on the edges and finial, with a clear glass panel on each side of the lantern head.
How It Works
It takes a single E27 bulb (not included) and is not dimmable. Being Class I, it needs to be earthed, and installation by a registered NICEIC electrician is recommended, along with suitable outdoor cabling run to the post's base.
Where It Works Best
As a lamp post, the Needham suits garden paths, driveway borders and entrances, where low level lighting helps mark the way after dark.
