Kichler Torche 24in 3-Light Vanity | Soft Modern Brushed Nickel Steel | Bathroom & Powder Room Light | 60W E26, Dimmable | Model 55157NI
A 24-inch wide, 3-light bathroom vanity light in brushed nickel from Kichler's Torche collection, designed for soft modern spaces above a double or single vanity.
The Torche vanity light brings a refined, soft modern look to the bathroom with its subtle fine-ribbed detailing inspired by classic hardware. Finished in brushed nickel and constructed from steel, this three-light bar complements a wide range of vanity styles from transitional to contemporary while providing generous illumination across the mirror.
Best for
- Bathroom vanities 36-48 inches wide, mounted centered above the mirror for balanced task and ambient light
- Powder rooms where a compact yet substantial fixture is desired
- Damp-rated bathrooms (steam, splashes) - safe for use above a sink basin
- Soft modern, transitional, or contemporary bathrooms with brushed nickel faucets and hardware
Not ideal for
- Spaces where a single, very bright light source is needed - use all three bulbs with higher-wattage or LED equivalents
- Dry-locations-only rooms like bedrooms or hallways (though it will work, its damp rating is best utilized in a bath)
- Installations on walls narrower than 24 inches - the fixture's width requires ample clearance
How bright is it?
Each of the three sockets accepts up to a 60W A or G25 bulb (bulbs not included). With standard incandescent bulbs, total output is roughly 2400-2700 lumens - equivalent to about three 40-60W incandescent bulbs, offering ample task light for grooming and makeup application. For lower output or energy savings, use LED bulbs rated for enclosed fixtures and dimmable if desired.
Light color and feel
Color temperature depends on the bulbs you choose. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer switch and dimmable LED bulbs (sold separately). The brushed nickel finish and ribbed detailing diffuse and soften the light, reducing glare around the mirror area.
Sizing and fit
The vanity measures 24.25 inches wide, 5 inches high, and extends 4.75 inches from the wall. Backplate is 5 inches in diameter. The center of the wall opening is 2.5 inches from the top. Weighs 4.25 lbs. Ideal for a 36-48 inch vanity; mount height above mirror typically 75-78 inches from the floor.
