What's in the Box
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.

Questions
Does the Sem Glass Panel Post Lantern require an electrician to install?
Yes, this is a hardwired Class I outdoor light fitting, so it must be installed by a qualified electrician in compliance with UK Building Regulations Part P. The lantern comes with all necessary mounting hardware, and whilst it's rated as having easy installation difficulty, mains electrical work legally requires professional certification. Your electrician will need to connect it to your existing outdoor lighting circuit or spur.
What IP rating does this post lantern have and is it suitable for exposed outdoor locations?
This lantern has an IP44 rating, which means it's protected against solid objects over 1mm and water splashing from any direction. It's suitable for most outdoor locations including garden posts, driveways, and patios, but should ideally have some overhead shelter in very exposed positions. IP44 is the standard rating for general outdoor lighting in the UK where the fitting isn't directly subjected to heavy rain or water jets.
What type of bulb does the Sem post lantern use and can it be dimmed?
The lantern uses a single E27 ES (Edison Screw) bulb with a maximum wattage of 60W, and it is dimmable when fitted with a compatible dimmable LED or halogen bulb. You'll need to ensure your lighting circuit has a dimmer switch installed if you want dimming functionality. E27 LED bulbs are widely available in various colour temperatures and lumens outputs to suit your preference.
What are the exact dimensions of this post lantern?
The Sem Glass Panel Post Lantern measures 200mm wide, 200mm deep, and 290mm tall, giving it a compact square profile that sits neatly on standard post caps. At just under 30cm in height, it provides accent lighting without being overly prominent, making it ideal for gate posts, wall piers, or deck posts.
Can this post lantern be used on a timber decking post or does it need a brick pillar?
This is a surface-mounted lantern that can be fitted to any stable surface including timber posts, brick pillars, or rendered walls, provided the surface can support the weight and the mounting hardware can be securely fixed. The included hardware is suitable for most installations, though your electrician may recommend specific fixings for timber posts to ensure weather-tight cable entry and structural security.
Does this outdoor lantern come with a bulb included or do I need to buy one separately?
The lantern does not include a bulb, so you'll need to purchase an E27 bulb separately with a maximum rating of 60W. For best energy efficiency and longevity outdoors, we recommend a dimmable LED bulb rated at 6-10W (equivalent to 40-60W traditional), which will give you several years of maintenance-free operation compared to halogen alternatives.
The Enso Standard
Anyone can sell you a light.
We’d rather sell you the right one.
Lighting, considered.
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.
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.
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.
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.
