A 18-inch LED pendant from Nuvo Lighting's Alta collection, finished in black with gray wood accents, ideal for kitchen islands and dining rooms where damp-rated fixtures are needed.
The Alta pendant combines a sleek black metal frame with warm gray wood details, creating a modern industrial look that suits contemporary and transitional spaces. The integrated LED delivers bright, energy-efficient light with a high CRI of 90 for accurate color rendering. Dimmable and damp-rated, it's versatile enough for covered patios or well-ventilated bathrooms.
Best for
- Kitchen islands 6-8 ft long, hung 30-36 inches above the counter for task and ambient light
- Dining rooms with tables seating 4-6, centered over the table
- Covered patios or sunrooms where damp-rated fixtures are required
- Open-concept living areas needing a statement light with high output
Not ideal for
- Small powder rooms or hallways - the 18-inch width and 9456 lumens may be overwhelming
- Spaces with ceilings under 8 ft - the fixture hangs 28.38 inches, requiring clearance
- Wet locations exposed to direct rain - damp-rated only, not wet-rated
How bright is it?
9456 lumens - equivalent to roughly a 60-70W incandescent bulb, but spread over a wide area. This is very bright, suitable as a primary light source for medium to large rooms. For comparison, a typical 100W incandescent is about 1600 lumens, so this fixture delivers nearly six times that output.
Light color and feel
3000K warm white (typical for integrated LED) - a soft, inviting tone similar to traditional incandescent. The 90 CRI ensures colors appear vibrant and natural, ideal for kitchens where food presentation matters. Fully dimmable with a compatible LED dimmer for adjustable ambiance.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 18 inches wide by 18 inches deep by 28.38 inches high. The fixture hangs from a standard junction box. For an 8-ft ceiling, the bottom of the pendant will be about 5.5 ft from the floor - suitable for islands and tables. For higher ceilings, additional chain or rod may be needed (not included).
