If it's only 1.12 m tall it's more like a garden light. My advice is to google image searches on likely English terms like garden light, or, as I did, lamp stand, until you get sth. that looks like your image.

i cant seem to copy and paste the picture from the document but it certainly looks like a street light. but the info with it is that it uses a 60W bulb E27 max has a 3 yr guarantee and is self assembly made of aluminium with an epoxy paint finish.

would that help us

@ C-A Yes, I agree... Asker's original context is rather ambiguous.

However, do let's just note in passing that this is a 1.12 m potelet — seems a bit big for just a bracket, don't you think? Or is it in fact a quite large sort of 'potence', and the 1.12 m refers to how far it sticks out from the wall, rather than the height? It would be such a help to know if this is street lighting or what?

More context would be a great help, I feel.

GDT says Petit support fixé à un édifice.
I should think lamp stand would suffice.
Tony, I think you're thinking of 'standard lamp' (which it may well be referring to, but which means the whole caboosh rather than just the support).
Look at google image search on "lamp stand" to see if the pics correspond to yours.
