A 17-inch, 2-light bath vanity light in matte black with mercury glass shades, designed for bathrooms and powder rooms.
The Athens collection combines industrial edge with vintage charm. The matte black steel and cast brass frame supports two mercury glass globe shades, casting a warm, diffused glow. This fixture suits transitional, modern, and restoration-style interiors.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 inch vanity, mounted above the mirror for even task lighting
- Powder rooms where a compact, stylish fixture adds character
- Damp-rated locations such as bathrooms with ventilation
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright, direct task lighting for detailed grooming
- Outdoor or wet locations
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulbs you choose. With two medium-base sockets (E26), you can install up to 60W each (or LED equivalent). Using 60W incandescent bulbs, expect about 1600 lumens total—similar to a 100W bulb, suitable for ambient and accent lighting.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shades diffuse light softly, creating a warm, ambient glow. For a warm, inviting feel, use 2700K-3000K LED bulbs. The fixture is dimmable when used with compatible dimmable bulbs and a standard dimmer switch.
Sizing and fit
Width: 16.88 inches, Height: 9.62 inches, Extension: 7.44 inches. Backplate: 6.25 x 4.5 inches. Works well above a 30-48 inch vanity, mounted 75-80 inches from the floor.
