Domus VIENNA 3LT 2.35M POSTLIGHT B22

The Domus VIENNA 3LT postlight is a triple-head exterior post — 2,350 mm high, 650 × 650 mm footprint, B22, 240 V, in five colours.

⭐ Its lamp base is consistent — which is what exposed its sibling's

• ⭐ This listing says B22 in its title and B22 in its record. ⭐ Consistent.
• ⭐⭐ THE 2LT VERSION — the same lantern on the same post with one fewer head — SAYS B22 IN ITS TITLE AND E27 IN ITS RECORD. ⭐ Having a correct sibling in the same family is what makes that identifiable as an error rather than an oddity.
• ⭐ We measured it across the catalogue: of 87 products naming exactly one lamp base in both title and record, 85 agree and 2 do not. ⭐ This is one of the 85.
• ⭐ SO IF YOU ARE BUYING BOTH, ORDER B22 LAMPS FOR BOTH — ⭐ but ask us to confirm the 2LT before you do, because we have not published a base for it.

⚠ It shares the IP conflict though

⭐ Its datasheet says IP23 and its record says IP43, as on the 2LT. ⭐ The difference is the solids digit: IP2X keeps out fingers, IP4X keeps out wires and most insects. ⭐⭐ ON A GARDEN LANTERN THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FITTING THAT FILLS WITH INSECTS AND ONE THAT DOES NOT — ⭐ the commonest complaint about lanterns, and entirely a solids question. ⭐ The water rating is 3 in both readings. ⭐ Treat it as IP23 — the cautious reading — until confirmed. ⚠ With three lanterns there are three times as many openings for insects to find.

⭐ Three heads at 2.35 m — a candelabra silhouette

• ⭐ Three lanterns on one post, with the third on the column top. ⭐⭐ THAT CHANGES THE SILHOUETTE ENTIRELY: a twin reads as two lights on arms, a triple reads as a candelabra. ⭐ From a distance it is a much more emphatic object.
• ⭐ IT SUITS ONE OR TWO POSITIONS ON A PROPERTY, NOT A RUN. ⭐ A pair flanking a driveway entrance or a gate is the classic use. ⚠ A line of them along a drive is overbearing, and expensive in both lamps and maintenance.
• ⚠ IT IS ALSO THE ONLY ARRANGEMENT THAT THROWS LIGHT UPWARD, because the top lantern is unobstructed above. ⭐ Worth checking near neighbours or under a dark-sky requirement.
• ⚠ THE 650 × 650 mm FOOTPRINT IS SUBSTANTIAL — ⭐ it will not fit a 600 mm bed, and the footing has to be wider still. ⭐ Three lanterns on arms also catches significant wind, so the footing matters more here than on any other arrangement in the range.

⭐ Three lamps, and matching them is the job

⭐ Three lamps are needed and none is included. ⭐⭐ THE THREE LANTERNS ARE SEEN TOGETHER FROM EVERY ANGLE, so any variation in colour or brightness is conspicuous. ⭐ Buy all three from one batch, and when one fails replace all three rather than one — a new lamp beside two aged ones is more obvious than three evenly aged ones. ⭐ Opal rather than clear, so the lanterns read as glowing objects rather than bright points. ⭐ Warm rather than cool: on a frontage post, cool white reads as institutional.

⭐ A separate wall bracket is named on the sheet

⭐ The sheet notes “Requires: Lamp GT-671 Wall Bracket Straight Arm Facing Up”. ⭐ That is the accessory reference for the wall-mounted arrangement of the same lantern rather than something this post needs. ⭐ The VIENNA head serves several arrangements, so a property can use a triple at the gate and brackets at the door and have them read as one scheme. ⭐ Tell us the arrangement you want and we will confirm the parts.

⛔ Made to order

Allow up to 10 business days for production. ⭐ Published, which is unusual in this catalogue — five colours in a made-to-order range means the finish is applied to your order.

✅ What is published

Where it works

• ⭐⭐ Flanking a driveway entrance or gate — ⭐ the classic use.
• ⭐ As the emphatic piece, with brackets elsewhere.
• ⭐ Heritage and period frontages.
• ⚠ Not in a line along a drive — ⭐ overbearing and costly.
• ⚠ Not in a bed under about 800 mm — ⭐ 650 mm base.

Specifying it

Triple-head exterior postlight. 2,350 mm high, 650 × 650 mm footprint. B22, three lamps required, none included. 220–240 V. Five colours. Made to order, up to 10 business days. 1-year warranty. ⭐ ITS LAMP BASE IS CONSISTENT — B22 in both title and record — AND THAT IS WHAT EXPOSED ITS SIBLING'S. The 2LT version, the same lantern on the same post with one fewer head, says B22 in its title and E27 in its record. Having a correct sibling in the same family is what makes that identifiable as an error rather than an oddity. ⚠ IT SHARES THE IP CONFLICT THOUGH: sheet IP23 against record IP43, a solids difference that on a garden lantern decides whether the fitting fills with insects — and with three lanterns there are three times as many openings to find.
