A 9-inch semi-flush mount with a natural fiber dome shade and matte black finish, ideal for farmhouse and cottage-style entryways and hallways.
The Ballston Dome combines a matte black steel and cast brass frame with a natural fiber basketweave shade, bringing organic texture and rustic charm to any space. Its compact 9-inch diameter makes it a perfect fit for smaller rooms or low ceilings where a flush mount feels too flat but a pendant hangs too low.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways with 7-8 ft ceilings, providing ambient light without overwhelming the space
- Farmhouse, country cottage, and rustic interiors where natural materials and matte black accents are desired
- Damp-rated locations such as covered porches or bathrooms with ventilation (UL/ETL listed for damp locations)
- Small bedrooms or reading nooks needing a soft, warm glow from a single vintage-style bulb
- Over a console table or sideboard in a dining area for a touch of rustic elegance
Not ideal for
- Large open-concept rooms where a single 9-inch fixture may not provide sufficient ambient light
- Spaces requiring direct task lighting, such as kitchen islands or desks
- Wet locations like uncovered outdoor areas (damp-rated only)
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb you choose. The fixture accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W incandescent equivalent (recommended ST64 shape). With a 60W equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens—similar to a traditional 60W bulb, suitable for ambient lighting in small to medium rooms. For a dimmer accent, use a 40W equivalent (450 lumens).
Light color and feel
Color temperature is determined by your bulb choice. A 2700K-3000K warm white bulb creates a cozy, inviting glow that complements the natural fiber shade and farmhouse aesthetic. The shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare and casting a warm, textured pattern on walls and ceilings. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 9 inches in diameter and 12.62 inches in overall height (including canopy). The shade is 9 inches wide and 8.12 inches tall. The canopy is 4.875 inches in diameter and 0.875 inches high. It projects about 12.62 inches from the ceiling, making it suitable for ceilings as low as 7 feet. Weighs 2.7 lbs.
