A 12-inch semi-flush mount with a mercury glass globe, finished in brushed satin nickel—ideal for entryways, hallways, and covered patios.
The Athens collection combines industrial edge with transitional appeal. The brushed satin nickel frame and cast brass accents support a large mercury glass orb that diffuses light softly. Rated for damp locations, this fixture works indoors and on covered porches.
Best for
- Entryways and foyers with 8-10 ft ceilings, mounted flush to the ceiling
- Hallways and corridors needing ambient light without glare
- Covered patios or porches (damp-rated)
- Kitchens with 8 ft ceilings as a central light
- Bedrooms with low ceilings where a pendant would hang too low
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms with direct shower spray (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting—this is an ambient fixture
- Rooms with ceilings over 12 ft where a flush mount may feel too low
How bright is it?
Uses one medium-base bulb (not included) up to 60W incandescent equivalent. With a standard 60W bulb, expect about 800 lumens—similar to a traditional living room ceiling light, suitable for ambient illumination. For brighter output, use an LED bulb (9-12W).
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade softens and scatters light, creating a warm, vintage glow. Use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb for a cozy, incandescent-like feel. The shade's reflective coating adds subtle sparkle.
