A 50-inch 3-light fluorescent flush mount from Nuvo's Rustica collection, designed for damp locations like kitchens and laundry rooms, finished in Old Bronze with a white plastic shade.
The Rustica collection brings a clean, transitional look to functional spaces. This flush mount features a durable Old Bronze finish and a white plastic shade that diffuses light evenly. It's an energy-efficient choice for rooms where you need bright, even illumination without the bulk of a hanging fixture.
Best for
- Kitchens over 100 sq ft, providing bright ambient light for meal prep and cooking
- Laundry rooms and utility spaces where damp conditions are a concern
- Hallways and corridors needing wide, even light distribution
- Basements and garages with standard 8-9 ft ceilings
- Commercial or residential spaces requiring energy-efficient fluorescent lighting
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 ft - the fixture's 4.5-inch height may feel too close
- Rooms where dimmable lighting is required - fluorescent fixtures are not dimmable with standard dimmers
- Areas requiring warm, cozy ambiance - fluorescent light can feel cool and clinical
- Outdoor uncovered areas - damp location rated, not wet location
How bright is it?
Three 32W T8 fluorescent bulbs produce approximately 9,000 lumens total - equivalent to about 300W of incandescent light. This is very bright, suitable for task-oriented spaces like kitchens and workshops. Lumen output may vary by bulb brand.
Light color and feel
Standard T8 fluorescent bulbs typically produce 3500K-4100K cool white light, which is crisp and energizing. This color temperature is ideal for task lighting but may feel harsh in living areas. CRI is typically 70-80 for standard T8s; higher CRI bulbs can be substituted for better color rendering.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 50 inches long, 12 inches wide, and 4.5 inches high. It is designed for flush mounting on ceilings 8 ft or higher. The low profile makes it suitable for rooms with limited overhead clearance.
