The polygonal bay window on the pleasant porch is an important architectural feature of the cedar shake home pictured above.  The Windowpane Overlay of our Carriage™ Lantern 7" Wide Flush Exterior Wall Light echoes the panes of glass in the bay window and transom windows.  Clear Seeded Art Glass Panels and weathered Verdigris Patina complement the natural wood shingles and painted wood molding of the porch. More than an architecturally appropriate decorative accent, the Carriage Lantern is a highly functional exterior wall sconce that lights the front entrance and seating area of this comfortable outdoor living space.  Simple style with straightforward design, the outdoor Carriage Lantern works on a variety of American vernacular homes and garages including New England Saltbox, Midwest Farmhouse, and Shaker inspired cottages.  It is also a suitable outdoor light for European influenced architectural styles such as Cotswold, Storybook Style, and French Country.
