A 12-inch tall outdoor hanging lantern from Nuvo's Cove Neck collection, finished in textured black with clear seeded glass, designed for covered patios and entryways.
The Cove Neck outdoor hanging lantern combines a classic transitional silhouette with a textured black finish and clear seeded glass shade. The seeded glass adds subtle texture while allowing warm light to glow through, making it a versatile choice for covered outdoor spaces. This 1-light lantern is damp-rated for covered patios, porches, and entryways.
Best for
- Covered patios and porches where a classic lantern style complements traditional or transitional homes
- Entryways and mudrooms with covered overhangs, hung as a single statement or in pairs flanking a door
- Outdoor dining areas under a covered pergola or awning, providing ambient light for evening meals
- Hallways or foyers with high ceilings, hung at a height that clears traffic
- Farmhouse or cottage-style exteriors where seeded glass and black finishes are a natural fit
Not ideal for
- Uncovered outdoor areas exposed directly to rain or snow - this fixture is rated for damp locations only, not wet locations
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is a single 100W incandescent fixture, best for ambient or accent light
- Modern minimalist interiors where a more streamlined, less traditional shape would be preferred
How bright is it?
This lantern accommodates one 100W incandescent bulb (not included), producing approximately 1600 lumens - comparable to a standard 100W bulb. This is suitable for ambient lighting over a dining table or as a welcoming glow at an entryway, but not enough to serve as the primary light source for a large room.
Light color and feel
The light color depends on the bulb you choose. With a standard incandescent bulb, expect a warm 2700K glow that feels inviting and traditional. The clear seeded glass diffuses light slightly, reducing glare while maintaining a clear view of the bulb. If you prefer a different color temperature, use an LED bulb with your desired Kelvin rating. The fixture is dimmable when used with a dimmable bulb and compatible dimmer switch.
Sizing and fit
This lantern measures 7 inches wide and 12 inches tall, with a 48-inch chain included for hanging. The overall height can be adjusted from 12 inches (flush to ceiling) up to 60 inches (12 + 48). Ideal for ceilings 8-10 feet tall when hung at a standard height. For covered patios, ensure at least 7 feet of clearance below the fixture.
