A 16-inch directional ceiling fan from Matthews Fan Company, built for indoor and covered outdoor spaces, with a brushed nickel motor housing and mahogany wood blades.
The Jarold Directional is a compact, high-velocity fan that directs airflow exactly where you need it. Handmade in the USA from high-gauge steel, it pairs a brushed nickel finish with rich mahogany blades for a warm, modern look. Its small footprint makes it ideal for tight spaces like kitchens, offices, or covered patios.
Best for
- Kitchens and breakfast nooks where a compact fan can direct air over a counter or table
- Home offices and studies needing focused airflow without a large ceiling fixture
- Covered patios, porches, and sunrooms rated for damp locations
- Small bedrooms or reading corners where a 16-inch fan provides gentle, targeted circulation
- Spaces with low ceilings where a downrod of 5, 10, 20, or 30 inches can be selected to suit the height
Not ideal for
- Large open-plan living areas over 200 square feet - the 16-inch blade span is too small to move air effectively across a big room
- Uncovered outdoor areas exposed to direct rain - this fan is damp-rated, not wet-rated
- Rooms where you want a light fixture - this is a fan only, with no integrated light kit
How bright is it?
This is a ceiling fan without a light kit, so it does not provide illumination. Pair it with existing ceiling lights, floor lamps, or wall sconces to light the space.
Light color and feel
Not applicable - this fan has no light source. The brushed nickel and mahogany finish adds a warm, natural accent to the ceiling.

Frequently asked
Is the bulb included? This fan does not include a light kit, so no bulbs are included.
Is it dimmable, and what dimmer should I use? Not applicable - this is a fan without a light, so dimming does not apply. Fan speed is controlled by the pull chain or a compatible wall control.

What's the warranty? Warranty details are not specified by the manufacturer; contact Matthews Fan Company for more information.
How does the brushed nickel finish compare to other finishes? Brushed nickel has a soft, satin sheen that resists fingerprints and complements both modern and traditional decor, unlike polished chrome which is more reflective.
