This pillar light is a round glass globe with a marbled planet pattern, seated on a black die cast aluminum base. It mounts on top of a fence post, gate pillar or path post.

A warm white LED bulb inside lights the thick glass evenly, so the banded pattern glows softly after dark and reads clearly from across the garden.

It is hardwired on 110V and rated IP54 for outdoor use in rain and snow. The bulb uses a standard E27 socket, so it is easy to replace.

Common Questions

Answered by the Nora Furnish team

About this piece

Which size fits a given post?

Each option lists the globe diameter, the base diameter and the height. Choose a base that fits comfortably on the top of the post.

Is a bulb included?

Yes. A 7W warm white LED bulb is included and fits the standard E27 socket, so it is easy to replace.

Can it handle rain?

It is rated IP54, which protects against splashing rain and dust, so it suits the tops of fence posts, gate pillars and path posts.

Shipping, returns and help

Is shipping free?

Yes. Standard shipping is free on every order delivered within the United States, with no minimum purchase.

What is your return policy?

Do I need an electrician?

Hardwired fixtures such as chandeliers, pendants, flush mounts and wall sconces connect to your home wiring, so we recommend a licensed electrician for those. Plug in, battery, solar and rechargeable lights need no wiring.

Made to be part of the house

Wired in once.
Beautiful for years.

The Orrery is hardwired to an outdoor supply at the top of the post or pier by a licensed electrician, for steady light every night on your own switch.

The idea

A pier at night should still hold its ground.

Light set on top of a pier marks the way in, crowns the masonry and tells guests they have arrived. Low, warm and well made, it keeps the architecture of the entrance alive after dark.

The diagnosis

Why most entrances
go dark at night.

Three things that keep a gate, a drive or a garden wall from saying welcome after dark.

A dark entrance.
Gates, drives and front steps lose their edges after sunset, just where guests need to find the way in.
Pillars that disappear.
Brick and stone piers frame the approach by day, then vanish at night, and the entrance loses its architecture.
Floodlight glare.
Harsh security lights blind the visitor, flatten the stonework and make a home look guarded rather than welcoming.

The Orrery was chosen to answer all three.
