- Bathrooms with damp-rated fixtures, placed near a mirror

How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. Using a standard 60W incandescent (about 800 lumens), it provides ample ambient light for a hallway or accent lighting in a bedroom. For a softer glow, use a 40W bulb (about 450 lumens).
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, vintage ambiance. Pair with a 2700K-3000K bulb for a cozy, incandescent-like glow. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.

Overall dimensions: 8 inches wide x 14 inches high, with a 14.12-inch extension from the wall. The backplate measures 4.5 inches wide x 7.88 inches high. Suitable for rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings.
