Product Care Guide

Plaster

Dust with a soft, dry cloth only. Plaster is porous, so avoid all liquid cleaners — they'll stain or mark the surface. Raw plaster fittings can be painted: use a matte emulsion in two thin coats, allowing each to dry fully before powering on. Don't install in bathrooms or other damp areas unless the IP rating allows it.

Brass & metal

Brass develops a natural patina over time, which most people prefer. To keep the current finish, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. For a brighter look, use a brass-specific polish sparingly. Never use lemon, vinegar, or abrasive cleaners — these damage lacquered brass irreversibly. Polished chrome and nickel finishes can be wiped with a damp microfibre cloth.

Glass

Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly to avoid water marks. For stubborn marks, a mild glass cleaner is fine. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and fully cool before cleaning.

Fabric shades

Dust with a soft brush or vacuum on the lowest setting using an upholstery attachment. Avoid wet cleaning — fabric shades can stain, warp, or shrink. Spot-clean small marks only with a barely-damp microfibre cloth.

Ceramic

Glazed ceramic can be wiped with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Unglazed or matte ceramic should be kept dry and dusted only. Always ensure the fitting is switched off and cool first.

Before you clean

Switch off at the wall and let the fitting cool fully. Never spray cleaner directly onto a fitting — apply to a cloth first. If your fitting has visible wiring, electrical components, or LED drivers exposed, keep moisture well away from these areas.

Ted Box Outdoor Post Aluminium Lantern — Black
01

Industrial Elegance After Dark

Ted brings the clarity of industrial design to outdoor living, where clean lines and purposeful form meet warm, inviting light. Its slender black profile stands gracefully on tables, low walls, or garden benches, casting a welcoming glow that transforms patios and terraces into evening destinations. This is lighting that works as hard visually as it does practically.

Crafted from aluminium with a weather-sealed glass shade, Ted is built to endure British weather with an IP44 rating that shrugs off rain and splashes. The E27 fitting gives you freedom to choose your bulb style and warmth, while the quality of construction—solid, refined, powder-coated—means this isn't a light you'll replace in a season. It's an investment in atmosphere.

Questions

Does the Ted Box Outdoor Post Lantern need to be installed by a qualified electrician?

Yes, as this is a hardwired Class I outdoor light fitting, installation falls under Part P of the Building Regulations and must be carried out by a registered electrician or certified competent person. The fitting will need to be connected to your mains supply and properly earthed, and given its outdoor location, appropriate weatherproof wiring and junction boxes are essential for safety and compliance.

What IP rating does this lantern have and is it suitable for exposed outdoor locations?

The Ted Box has an IP44 rating, which means it's protected against splashing water from any direction and solid objects over 1mm. This makes it suitable for covered porches, sheltered patios, and partially exposed garden areas, but it's not designed for fully exposed locations subject to driving rain or direct water jets. For best longevity, position it where it has some overhead protection from the worst of the weather.

What type of bulb does the Ted Box lantern require and is one included?

This lantern takes a standard E27 ES (Edison Screw) bulb and no bulb is included with the fitting. You can use any E27 LED, halogen, or traditional filament bulb up to the maximum wattage specified for the fitting, giving you full control over brightness and colour temperature to suit your outdoor space.

Can I use a dimmer switch with the Ted Box Outdoor Post Lantern?

The lantern itself is compatible with dimmer switches as it's a simple hardwired fitting, but whether you can dim it depends entirely on the bulb you choose. If you want dimming functionality, you'll need to fit a dimmable E27 LED bulb and ensure your dimmer switch is LED-compatible, as standard rotary dimmers designed for halogen bulbs often don't work properly with LEDs.

What are the exact dimensions and what height should I mount this lantern at?

The Ted Box measures 322mm in height, 110mm in width, and 110mm in depth, making it a compact post lantern ideal for smaller outdoor surfaces. The manufacturer recommends an ideal mounting height of 0.7–0.9m (roughly 70–90cm), which works perfectly for placing on low walls, gate posts, garden plinths, or outdoor tables where the light sits at a comfortable eye level when seated.

What warranty does the Ted Box Outdoor Post Lantern come with?

This lantern is covered by a 1-year manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. The warranty covers manufacturing faults but doesn't extend to damage caused by improper installation, use of incorrect bulbs exceeding the maximum wattage, or general wear and tear from outdoor exposure, so proper installation by a qualified electrician and appropriate bulb selection are important for maintaining coverage.

The Enso Standard

Anyone can sell you a light.
We’d rather sell you the right one.

Lighting, considered.

01

Chosen, not stocked

For every piece here, we passed on hundreds. If a fitting doesn’t earn its place, it isn’t here.

Curation is mostly the art of saying no.

02

Held to one standard

Copenhagen brass or precision-built LED — every piece is vetted the same way: finish, build, light quality, safety. If it doesn’t pass, it doesn’t stay.

The standard doesn’t care what a light costs.

03

Nothing left to guess

Every dimension, bulb, IP rating and install note published before you buy — you and your electrician know exactly what arrives.

The spec sheet is the love letter.

04

Backed, properly

Two-year warranty as standard, 30-day returns. If something isn’t right, we’d rather know — and put it right.

A fitting should outlast the fashion that chose it.
