Carriage House Collection 26 1/2" High Outdoor Post Light

Was excited to order these light based primarily on the unique finish. The lights were delivered promptly but the finish on three of the four is a pretty solid dark dark bronze almost black without the aged hammered look. One of the four had a small bit of lighter color showing through but overall pretty disappointed, primarily with the manufacturer Maxim Lighting.

We purchased this lamp post lamp to coordinate with 2 garage wall lamps (K0810) and they all look fantastic. With a dark slate shingled roof and light cream facade, the lamps really accent the house well during the day, and at night they illuminate brilliantly. In addition to lighting up the area, the water glass produces an attractive reflective pattern with the shadows. The color in the image is a bit deceiving, as the lamps we received were more black than bronze, though up close one could see a hint of bronze.

We had to paint the existing pole Black (Rustoleum brand in flat black) and it matches beautifully. We also connected a light sensor to come on at dusk and go off at dawn with no problem. The entire installation took less than 1 hour.

It might be helpful to speak with someone to ask about upcoming sales. Two weeks after our purchase they put both styles on sale.
