Enferme 22 Outdoor Wall Lantern by Sean Lavin for Visual Comfort

The Enferme 22 Outdoor Wall Lantern by Sean Lavin is a modern interpretation of the classic lantern, engineered for outdoor environments. A clear glass enclosure frames a thin inner glass tube that glows like an Edison bulb. At 22 inches it is the second size of the series, a step up from the 15 inch lantern. Finished in Outdoor Black with a brass backplate.

The Design Story

Visual Comfort says the Enferme name is French for “enclosed”, which speaks to its defining feature: a clear glass enclosure framing a thin inner glass tube. The tube houses an integrated LED light source designed to mimic the warmth and profile of an Edison bulb, so the look is familiar and the performance is modern. At 22 inches, it is ideal for entryways or medium-scale exterior walls, where its clean lines and a solid brass backplate finished in Hand-Rubbed Antique Brass underscore strength and proportion. Enferme combines durability with a soft simplicity for outdoor spaces that feel refined and enduring.

Why You'll Love It

The Enferme 22 suits an entryway or a medium-scale exterior wall, where a clean, tall lantern gives strength and proportion without overwhelming the wall. It is 22 inches tall, 7.3 inches wide and 3.9 inches deep, and it weighs 31 pounds. The integrated LED glows warm at 2700K inside the glass tube, with a brass backplate behind it.

Made for Real Life

The Enferme 22 has an aluminum frame, glass panels and machined brass hardware, built for durability and clarity. The spec sheet lists an ETL wet location listing, and the product page rates it Outdoor Full Weather, so it can hang on an exposed exterior wall. Visual Comfort backs it with a 5-year warranty.

Product Details

Where It Shines

Beside a front door, at an entry, along a medium-scale exterior wall or on a garage wall where a 22 inch lantern balances the facade.

Who This Is Not For

Enferme 22 weighs 31 pounds, so it is not for a light-duty wall. For a small side door the 15 inch Enferme is slimmer, and for a large entry or a tall wall the 29 or 36 inch Enferme has more scale.
