A carriage lamp light offers a traditional style approach for contemporary decor. These lights originated with lighting needs for old time transportation. When first invented, they were used on the corners of grand coaches. For this reason they are also known as "coach lights."

You can often recognize a carriage lamp light by its pagoda-like shape. They include a long handle at the base. Originally, the coachman would grasp the light by this handle. However, in today's world these lights are often wall-mounted.

While it is difficult to find a true carriage lamp light in use today, the style is still a favorite. Many people choose these lamps for porch light decoration. Of course, just because they have antique-based aesthetics doesn't mean they have to be old-fashioned. A solar carriage lamp light brings the classical design together with newer technology, creating an elegant as well as energy efficient lighting option.
