About the Paxton
Key Features
- Black die cast aluminum, rust resistant
- Frosted acrylic panels glow on four sides
- Solar or hardwired power
- Hardwired model includes a warm white bulb
- IP54 rated for gate posts and pillars
This pillar light is a classic square lantern with a hipped roof, a black die cast aluminum frame and frosted acrylic panels. It mounts on top of a gate post, fence pillar or garden wall with its square base plate.
The frosted panels spread the light evenly on every side, giving a soft, even glow along a driveway or path.
Two power choices are offered. The solar model charges by day through a panel in the roof and turns on at night, with three color temperatures to pick from. The hardwired model runs from a wall switch with a warm white bulb included.

Materials

- The hardwired model has a pointed roof.
- Slight variation in color and finish between units is normal on a painted metal fixture.
Care
- Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.
- Dry the metal fully after cleaning so water does not sit on the finish.

- On the solar model, wipe the panel regularly so it charges well.
- For the hardwired model, switch the power off and let the light cool before cleaning.
Common Questions
Answered by the Nora Furnish team
About this piece
Solar or hardwired, which should I pick?
Choose solar for a post with no wiring; it charges in 4 to 6 hours of sun and lights for 8 to 12 hours. Choose hardwired for steady warm white light every night from a wall switch.
How does it mount?
It fixes to the flat top of a post, pillar or wall through its square base plate. The hardwired model should be connected by a qualified electrician.
Which size fits my post?
Match the base plate to the top of your post: 9.8, 11.8, 15.7 or 19.7 inches square. The height changes a little with the power choice and is listed in the Dimensions section.
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?
You can request a return within 30 days of delivery. Items must be unused, in their original condition and in the original packaging. Email info@norafurnish.com before sending anything back.
What if it arrives damaged or faulty?
We send a replacement at no charge, and the return costs you nothing. Email your order number and a photo of the problem to info@norafurnish.com.
When will I receive my refund?
Once your return arrives and is approved, the refund usually shows on your original payment method within 5 to 7 business days.
Is there a discount when I buy more than one item?
Yes. Add 2 items to your cart and you save 10%, add 3 or more and you save 15%. It applies automatically, no code needed, and cannot be combined with other discount codes.
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.
Can I order it in another size or finish?
Every size and finish available is listed in the options above. For help finding the closest match in the catalog, email info@norafurnish.com.
How do I reach you?

Two ways to power it
Solar, or
wired in for good.
Choose solar where no cable reaches: it charges by day and lights up after dark, with no wiring at all. Choose hardwired where a supply is already in place, for steady light every night, connected by a licensed electrician.

Four sizes, one idea
One design,
sized to your pier.
The same design in four sizes, each with its own measurements below. Choose by the space it will live in.
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 Nora Furnish design studio
- Black die cast aluminum, rust resistant
- Frosted acrylic panels glow on four sides
- Solar or hardwired power
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 Paxton was chosen to answer all three.
