Covered outdoor spaces are where Moroccan lighting truly comes alive. The shadow patterns project across patio floors, porch walls, and pergola beams, creating an outdoor living room atmosphere that no string light or can light can match.

Best Fixtures for Outdoor Use

Hanging lanterns are the natural choice — their enclosed design protects the bulb from wind and weather. For larger spaces, a Moroccan chandelier under a pergola becomes a stunning outdoor dining focal point.

Weather Considerations

Brass is naturally weather-resistant — it won't rust like iron or corrode like cheap aluminum. Under a covered porch or pergola, our fixtures will last for years. In exposed areas, brass develops a green-brown patina (like the Statue of Liberty) that many people find beautiful. To prevent patina, apply a thin coat of clear lacquer once a year.

Wiring for Outdoor

Outdoor fixtures should connect to GFCI-protected circuits. Use a weatherproof junction box if your porch ceiling doesn't already have one. For pergolas without hardwired electricity, ask us about plug-in pendant conversion kits.

The Evening Effect

Moroccan outdoor lights become magical at twilight — as ambient daylight fades, the geometric shadow patterns become increasingly visible across your patio floor and walls. This is the kind of atmospheric outdoor lighting that makes neighbors stop and ask where you bought your fixtures.
