A 1-light bathroom vanity light in polished nickel with etched opal glass, ideal for adding warm, dimmable illumination above a bathroom mirror.
The Caryle collection by Nuvo Lighting combines classic transitional styling with a polished nickel finish and etched opal glass shade. This compact vanity light is designed to provide soft, glare-free light for daily grooming tasks while complementing a wide range of bathroom decors from traditional to modern.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single vanity up to 30 inches wide, mounted above the mirror
- Powder rooms and half-baths where a small, elegant light fixture is needed
- Spaces with existing incandescent dimmer switches for adjustable ambiance
- Transitional or traditional bathroom designs with polished nickel faucets and hardware
- California residences where Title 20 exempt fixtures are required
Not ideal for
- Large bathrooms with double vanities requiring multiple light sources
- Damp or wet locations such as directly above a shower or outdoors
- Spaces with low ceilings under 7 feet where the 12-inch height may feel oversized
How bright is it?
This fixture uses one incandescent bulb (not included) up to 60 watts. Brightness depends on the bulb chosen: a 60W incandescent bulb produces about 800 lumens, similar to a standard household lamp. For a softer glow, use a 40W bulb (about 450 lumens). The fixture is dimmable when used with compatible dimmer switches and dimmable bulbs.
Light color and feel
The etched opal glass shade diffuses light evenly, reducing harsh shadows and creating a warm, inviting glow. With a standard incandescent bulb at 2700K-3000K, the light appears warm white, flattering skin tones and complementing warm bathroom finishes. For a cooler, more daylight-like color, use an LED bulb with a higher Kelvin rating.
Sizing and fit
This vanity light measures 5 inches wide, 4.5 inches deep, and 12 inches tall. It is designed for wall mounting above a bathroom mirror. The compact size works well over single vanities up to 30 inches wide. Allow at least 6 inches of clearance above the mirror for proper installation.
