A 6-inch semi-flush mount with a mercury glass globe, finished in matte black—ideal for entryways, hallways, and covered porches where you want vintage-inspired ambient light without sacrificing headroom.
The Athens collection combines industrial matte black steel with a mercury glass shade, creating a fixture that feels both modern and nostalgic. The globe-shaped shade diffuses light softly, while the compact 6-inch diameter makes it a versatile choice for smaller spaces or low ceilings.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways with 7-8 ft ceilings, providing ambient light without overwhelming the space
- Covered porches or patios rated for damp locations
- Bedrooms or sitting areas where a flush mount is preferred but a semi-flush adds a touch of style
- Kitchens over a sink or breakfast nook, paired with a vintage ST64 bulb for character
Not ideal for
- Large rooms over 12x12 ft where more light output is needed—this is a single-bulb accent fixture
- Bathrooms with direct shower exposure (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
- Spaces requiring directional task lighting
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 vintage bulb, expect around 800 lumens—similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for ambient or accent lighting in small to medium rooms.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade softens and diffuses light, creating a warm, slightly muted glow. For a cozy atmosphere, use a 2700K-3000K warm white bulb. The open-bottom design allows some direct light downward, while the globe casts light upward and sideways.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 5.88 in diameter x 9.38 in height. The canopy is 4.875 in diameter and 0.875 in height. This semi-flush mount projects only about 8.5 inches from the ceiling, making it suitable for 7-8 ft ceilings. Weight: 2.7 lbs.
