Exterior home lighting can give curb appeal, charm and functionality. With new outdoor materials designed to withstand the intensity of the sun, humidity and cold, you can now enjoy more time experiencing outdoor living. To help create your outdoor oasis, first consider these five styles of lighting fixtures.
Lamps are not just for the interior of your home. These can be fashionable and functional outside on a patio, porch or gazebo. Outdoor lamps, like the Copper Phoenix, feature all-resin construction, which makes it weatherproof, not to mention the high-performance outdoor Sunbrella fabric is used on the lamp shade for further durability. These fixtures have a two level dimming switch and 16ft weatherproof cord and plug. The light bulb is waterproof and unbreakable which make these lamps ready for the outdoor experience.
The Mambajamba Lamp is also made for the outdoor elements. The unique woven resin wicker material is UV protective and weather resistant and doesn't lack in design. These come with a powder coated wire frame and a poly resin base frame to stand up to any climate.
Patio torches provide both home exterior lighting and decorative appeal. These are used for special events, parties or just everyday outdoor relaxing. The Crater Cast Aluminum Torch stands 62 inches high and come with a lifetime fiberglass wick which will stay lit in the rain and snow. Outdoor torches can also provide extra safety at night on driveways and pathways.
Patio lanterns are charming light fixtures which provide atmosphere and ambiance. Lanterns are very portable and easy to relocate. The Six Sided Solar Lantern will provide home lighting and decoration to your back patio. With no electrical outlet needed, this lantern will add that sparkle to any garden party. Each lantern is high quality die-cast aluminum construction, powder-coated. These solar lanterns come with a garden Shepard's hook to hang the lantern on. Candle lanterns have a place to put a votive candle. These look great placed around a deck or outdoor sitting area.
Wall Mount Lighting or gas lanterns are unique lighting fixtures that bring you back to the past. The Grand Aisle Collection was created to resemble the large European gas lanterns found on stately avenues and important historical structures long ago. This beautiful outdoor light combines tapered water glass with a cast aluminum frame finished in weathered charcoal.
Pendant lighting is perfect for entry ways, a back porch or gazebo. These are similar in design to gas lanterns but these hang from a chain rather than carried with a handle. The Grand Aisle 3-Light is a beautiful pendant which combines tapered water glass with a cast aluminum frame finished in weathered charcoal for a stylish finish.
