An 8-inch flush mount ceiling light with a mercury glass globe, finished in brushed brass, for hallways, bedrooms, and other spaces with lower ceilings.
The Athens flush mount from Innovations Lighting brings an industrial-modern look to your ceiling. Its mercury glass shade has a reflective, slightly smoky finish that adds depth, while the brushed brass frame and knurled details give it a vintage-inspired character. This fixture is ideal for rooms where you want ambient light without the bulk of a hanging pendant.
Best for
- Hallways and entryways with 8-foot ceilings, providing even ambient light
- Bedrooms, mounted centered or slightly off-center for a soft glow
- Dining areas or breakfast nooks where a low-profile light is needed
- Covered porches or patios, thanks to its damp-rated construction
- Bathrooms with adequate ventilation, as a stylish vanity or general light
Not ideal for
- Large open rooms needing high brightness, as it's designed for ambient accent light
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 feet, as the fixture extends about 9.5 inches
- Outdoor areas exposed to direct rain, despite its damp rating
How bright is it?
With a recommended 6-watt LED bulb (not included), this fixture provides approximately 800 lumens - similar to a 60-watt incandescent bulb. It's ideal for creating a warm, inviting atmosphere rather than serving as a primary task light.
Light color and feel
The fixture accepts a standard medium base (E26) bulb, so you can choose your preferred color temperature. For a warm, cozy feel, select a 2700K-3000K bulb; for a more neutral light, opt for 3500K-4000K. The mercury glass shade diffuses light, reducing glare and creating a soft, ambient glow.
Sizing and fit
This flush mount measures 8 inches in diameter and 9.5 inches in height, making it suitable for rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings. It mounts directly to the ceiling, so it won't interfere with tall furniture or doorways.
