A 36-inch, 3-light island light in polished nickel with mercury glass shades, designed for kitchen islands and dining rooms.
The Athens collection combines industrial edge with vintage charm. This island light features a polished nickel finish on steel and cast brass, paired with three mercury glass globe shades that diffuse a warm glow. The stem-hung design allows height adjustment from 17.38 to 41.38 inches, making it adaptable to various ceiling heights.
Best for
- Kitchen islands 4-6 ft long, centered over the counter for task and ambient lighting
- Dining rooms with tables 48-60 in long, hung 30-36 in above the tabletop
- Open-concept spaces where the industrial-vintage style complements exposed brick or neutral palettes
- Damp-rated locations such as covered patios or sunrooms (ETL listed for damp locations)
Not ideal for
- Small kitchens under 8x10 ft where a 36-inch fixture may overwhelm the space
- Low ceilings under 8 ft if you need the full 41-inch drop
- Spaces requiring bright, direct task lighting without additional fixtures
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulbs you choose (not included). With three medium-base sockets, using 60W equivalent LED bulbs (approx. 800 lumens each) yields about 2400 lumens total - comparable to a bright overhead light suitable for meal prep and dining. For a softer glow, use lower-wattage vintage bulbs.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shades soften and diffuse light, creating a warm, ambient glow. For a classic vintage look, pair with ST64-shaped bulbs in warm white (2700-3000K). The fixture is dimmable when used with compatible dimmer switches and dimmable bulbs.
