The Domus GT-656 Monaco is a single-head post light 1,350mm tall, IP43, taking one E27 lamp, indie-cast aluminium with a moulded acrylic lens. Five powder-coated colours.

This item is made to order

Domus builds this to order and asks for up to 10 business days for production before itships. The body is powder-coated in Australia in your colour after ordering. Order a runtogether a later batch is not guaranteed to match.

Its height is published, and the Monaco size names are reliable

• Each size word maps to one height, and each height carries one word checkedin both directions across the whole range.
• And the datasheet publishes the ladder, so the words are anchored to somethingrather than assigned.
• Worth saying plainly, because it is not true everywhere. In the Siena sphere rangein this same catalogue, four pairs of posts are named differently and record identicaldimensions a medium and a tall at the same height. The Monaco does not have that problem.
• So on this range you can order by the size word.

1,350 mm suits a path rather than a driveway

• The lantern sits at about chest height below eye level for mostadults.
• Which suits a lantern well. The acrylic lens directs light downward, so at thisheight it puts a usable pool on the path rather than glowing at you.
• That is the practical difference from the Siena spheres, which throw in everydirection and mark a path rather than light it. If you want to see the ground, a lantern is theright choice.
• For a driveway or an entrance, step up the 1,980mm medium or2,350mm tall post covers more ground from one fitting.

Made in Italy, assembled and powder coated here

Light die-cast aluminium body, moulded acrylic lens. The castings are Italian; the fitting isassembled and powder coated in Australia. That is on the datasheet and in no productfield and it is also why five colours are offered to order rather than one stockfinish.

Two things to check before you order

• No width is recorded on this listing, where the twin-head version records860mm. Ask us if the footprint matters against a path edge or a boundary.
• No maximum lamp wattage, footing depth, base plate size or wind rating is recorded the same gap across all these traditional ranges. We would fit an 810W E27LED, warm at 27003000K, rated for enclosed and damp use.
• Check the lamp base before buying globes. Domus also sells traditionallanterns in a B22 bayonet version in the Chester, Avignon and Vienna ranges B22 and E27 donot interchange. This one is E27.

Where it works

• Garden paths and walkways, where you want light on the ground.
• Repeated along a border at regular centres.
• Traditional and period properties, matched with Monaco wall brackets andpendants.
• Not for a driveway the 1,980mm or 2,350mm post covers moreground.
• IP43, so not a wash-down or coastal front-line position.

Questions

Can I trust the “Short” name on this range?

Yes and it is worth asking, because it is not true everywhere in this catalogue. Measured across the whole Monaco range, each size word maps to one height and each height carries one word: short is 1,350mm, medium 1,980mm, tall 2,350mm. All three match the heights the datasheet itself publishes, so the words are anchored to something rather than assigned. By contrast, four pairs of Siena sphere posts are named differently and record identical dimensions. On the Monaco you can order by the size word.

Will it light my path or just mark it?

It will light it. The acrylic lens directs light downward, so at 1,350mm about chest height it puts a usable pool on the ground rather than glowing at you. That is the practical difference from the Siena spheres in this catalogue, which throw in every direction and mark a path without lighting it. If you want to see the surface you are walking on, a lantern is the right choice.

What lamp does it take?

One E27 lamp, not included. Check this before buying globes: other Domus lantern ranges are B22 bayonet the Chester, Avignon and most of the Vienna range, and B22 and E27 do not interchange. This listing is E27. We would fit an 810W LED, warm at 27003000K, rated for enclosed and damp use no maximum wattage is recorded in any source, so ask us before going above about 15W.

Where is it made?

The castings are made in Italy, and the fitting is assembled and powder coated in Australia. That is on the datasheet and in no product field, which is a pity on a traditional lantern where it is exactly what a buyer wants to know. The local powder coating is also why five colours are offered to order rather than one stock finish and why there is a ten-day production time.

How much room does it need?

No width is recorded on this listing, where the twin-head version records 860mm. A single head will be considerably narrower than that, but we would rather measure than estimate ask us if the footprint matters against a path edge or a boundary, and we will confirm before your lead time starts.

Should I choose a taller post instead?

For a driveway or an entrance, yes. At 1,350mm this lights a path well but covers a limited area; the 1,980mm medium and 2,350mm tall posts throw further from one fitting, which matters when you are lighting a drive rather than a walkway. All three take the same lantern and the same lamp, so it is purely a question of coverage and presence.

What footing does it need?

Not recorded no depth, base plate size, fixing pattern or wind rating, which is the same gap across all these traditional Domus ranges. At 1,350mm the loading is the gentlest of the three Monaco posts, but it still goes into concrete and it is easier to get right the first time. Tell us the site and the soil and we will get the detail from Domus.
