Cupola Lighting Ideas for Your Window Cupola

One of the unique benefits of windows cupolas is the multitude of lighting options they offer. Functional window cupolas act as a skylight, flooding your garage, attic, barn, shed, or even bedroom with beautiful natural light. Decorative window cupolas can be lit one of two ways: either a standard light bulb or a decorative cupola lantern. A standard light bulb is mounted into the bottom of the cupola, illuminating your cupola with a soft glow - no special bulb required! Any standard LED bulb will do, no more than 8 watts. And you can change the bulb to match the seasons (orange for Halloween, green or red for Christmas)!
​
Our most popular cupola lighting idea is to choose a decorative light from our beautiful collection of cupola lanterns. We have 15 unique styles to choose from, including our two new modern designs, the New York and Capture lanterns. No matter your design style or the size of your cupola, our cupola lanterns are sure to please!

Cupola Lighting Ideas from Our Collection

The polished metal finishes of our new cupola lanterns make a stunning addition to any home. The Seafarer Lantern (left) is perfect for any beach or lake home, harkening back to the traditional lantern designs used by lighthouse keepers and longshoremen. The Olde Colony Copper Lantern (center) is a polished, modern version of our popular patina model. Copper has grown in popularity as an architectural element, and this lantern can help highlight and complement other copper accents on your home. Lastly, our American Heritage Lantern (right) offers a classic, boxy design with delicate panes and multiple lights for even more brilliance. This is the perfect lantern for any Colonial, Cape Cod or rustic style home.

If you prefer a more modern design, our New York and Capture lanterns are the model of simplicity. Their long, sleek, minimalist lines accentuate the height of your cupola and complement your home’s structure. Pair with an Edison bulb for a trendy, chic look.

Accessing Your Cupola Light

If you want to add lighting to your window cupola, our cupola specialists have you covered. For a small fee, we will fit one of the cupola windows with hinges on the inside. Simply remove the exterior screws, and the window will swing upward. Prop the window open, and you can easily install your cupola lanterns or change out a bulb. (Don’t worry: LED bulbs can last up to 11 years, so this isn’t a chore you will have to perform often!)
