A 7-inch semi-flush mount light with a mercury glass globe, ideal for hallways, foyers, and bedrooms with low ceilings.
The Preston Cylinder brings an industrial-modern edge to your ceiling. Its brushed satin nickel finish and mercury glass shade create a vintage-inspired look that complements both contemporary and restoration-style interiors. The sturdy steel and cast brass construction ensures lasting durability.
Best for
- Hallways and entryways with 8-foot ceilings, providing ambient light without overwhelming the space
- Bedrooms and sitting rooms where a compact, low-profile light is needed
- Dining areas and kitchens as a secondary light source over a table or island
- Covered patios and porches, thanks to its damp-rated certification
- Spaces with modern or industrial decor, where the mercury glass adds a subtle vintage touch
Not ideal for
- Large rooms needing bright, primary illumination - this is a single-bulb fixture best for accent or ambient light
- Bathrooms with direct shower exposure, despite its damp rating, unless properly placed away from water spray
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 feet, as the fixture hangs 13 inches
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb you choose; the fixture accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb, such as an ST64 vintage style. For reference, a 60W incandescent equivalent LED produces about 800 lumens, which is suitable for ambient lighting in a hallway or bedroom.
Light color and feel
The light color is determined by the bulb you install. For a warm, cozy feel, choose a 2700K-3000K bulb. The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare and creating a gentle glow.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 6.75 inches wide and 13 inches high, with a canopy of 4.5 inches in diameter. It fits well in rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings and provides a low-profile look.
