About This Light

Lykta is a plain box lantern: a slim black frame with a flat top, four clear glass panels and a brass-toned socket holding the bulb in the middle where you can see it. At dusk the bulb glows warm inside the glass and lays a soft wash of light down the wall, whether it is stucco, brick or timber.

Its straight lines suit modern, farmhouse and traditional houses alike. Hang one or a pair beside a front door, a garage, a garden gate or along a balcony or terrace. The 11.8 in Small suits a standard entry door; the 14.8 in Large holds its own on a wider facade or beside a double door.

  • Small: 30 cm (11.8 in) tall, lantern 12.5 cm (4.9 in) wide, backplate about 16 × 11 cm (6.3 × 4.3 in), about 16 cm (6.3 in) from the wall
  • Large: 37.5 cm (14.8 in) tall, lantern 15 cm (5.9 in) wide, backplate about 20 × 11 cm (7.9 × 4.3 in), 20 cm (7.9 in) from the wall
  • Materials: black aluminum frame and wall bracket; clear glass panels on all four sides; brass-toned socket
  • Bulb: one exposed socket; a clear filament bulb suits the open glass
  • Voltage: 85–265V AC, suitable for standard US 120V wiring
  • Mounting: hardwired to an outdoor junction box

Installation and care: Have a qualified electrician install it; it is best placed under a porch roof or eave, out of direct rain. Clean the glass with a soft cloth and glass cleaner, and dust the frame now and then.
