Harte Traditional Pier Light

The Harte Traditional Pier Light is a Victorian-style outdoor post-top lantern from Harte's Traditional range, designed to sit on narrower or chamfered pier tops. Its form references classic street lanterns while remaining compact enough for domestic piers and garden posts.

Formally the lantern presents a tapered, four-sided body capped by a tiered, pagoda-style lid and decorative finial. The frame is finished in black and incorporates subtle corner mouldings and an embossed crest on the cap, giving a restrained, period-appropriate appearance.

Constructed from metal with clear transparent panels, the lantern uses a galvanised steel mounting disc (0.15m diameter) to secure to a pier or post. The enclosed glass panels protect the lamp and make the fitting straightforward to maintain.

The fitting houses a single lamp in a central socket and provides direct, unfiltered light suitable for pathway, driveway or garden illumination. Its enclosed design and IP44 rating make it appropriate for exposed external locations where splashing water may occur.

Installation is straightforward: the base collar fits over a post or pier and includes a visible securing point to fasten the lantern. Confirm lamp type and wattage with your installer when specifying, and note the product is supplied with a lifetime warranty for long-term assurance.
