A 16-inch semi-flush mount with a natural fiber dome shade and oil rubbed bronze finish, ideal for farmhouse and cottage-style entryways and hallways.
The Natural Ballston Dome semi-flush mount combines a rustic oil rubbed bronze steel frame with a warm natural fiber basketweave shade. The dome shape diffuses light softly, creating a cozy ambiance. This fixture is part of the Natural Ballston Dome collection and is rated for damp locations, making it suitable for covered porches as well.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways with 8-10 ft ceilings, providing ambient light with a farmhouse touch
- Covered porches or patios (damp-rated) where a natural, rustic look is desired
- Kitchens with a farmhouse or country cottage aesthetic, over a sink or island
- Bedrooms needing a soft, warm overhead light without the bulk of a chandelier
- Dining nooks or breakfast areas where a low-profile fixture complements natural textures
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 ft - the fixture hangs 16.88 inches and may feel too low
- Modern or ultra-minimalist interiors - the natural fiber shade and oil rubbed bronze finish lean rustic
- Areas requiring bright task lighting - this is an ambient fixture, not a primary work light
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used. The fixture accepts one medium base (E26) bulb up to 60W (or LED equivalent). With a 60W incandescent, expect about 800 lumens - similar to a standard living room lamp. For a dimmer effect, use a 40W bulb (450 lumens). Bulb not included.
Light color and feel
The natural fiber shade warms any bulb's output, creating a soft, diffused glow. For a classic farmhouse look, pair with a vintage ST64 bulb (suggested) at 2700K-3000K warm white. The fixture is not dimmable unless a dimmable bulb and compatible dimmer are used.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 15.75 inches wide and 16.88 inches high, with a canopy diameter of 4.875 inches. It projects about 16 inches from the ceiling. Best for rooms 8x8 ft or larger with standard 8-9 ft ceilings.
