Kichler Kavi 32in Wide 4-Light Bath Vanity | Modern Black Steel & Clear Glass | Bathroom & Powder Room Lighting | 4 Bulbs 120V, Dimmable | Model 55212BK
A 31.5-inch wide, 4-light bath vanity for primary bathrooms and powder rooms, finished in black steel with clear glass shades.
The Kavi collection by Kichler brings clean, modern curves and fluted socket detailing to any bath space. Its rectangular silhouette and clear glass shades provide even, ample illumination across a double vanity while the soft European-inspired profile suits contemporary and transitional interiors alike. The black steel frame contrasts beautifully with the clear T10 bulbs to create a crisp, tailored look.
Best for
- Double vanities 48-60 inches wide, installed horizontally centered above the mirror for balanced task lighting
- Large powder rooms where a single fixture can anchor the entire wall
- Contemporary and modern bathrooms with black or chrome hardware accents
- Damp locations such as bathrooms with a shower or tub in the same room
- Rooms with 8-10 ft ceilings where the 10-inch height keeps the fixture proportional
Not ideal for
- Small single vanities under 30 inches - this fixture is 31.5 inches wide and will overhang the countertop
- Dry locations only - the damp rating makes it safe for bathrooms but not for covered outdoor areas
- Sloped or vaulted ceilings - this fixture is designed for flat wall mounting only
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the four T10 bulbs you choose (not included). With four standard 60W incandescent bulbs, total output would be approximately 3200-4000 lumens - bright enough to illuminate a double vanity area for grooming and makeup application. LED or CFL equivalents can be used for lower wattage and heat output.
Light color and feel
The clear glass shades showcase whatever bulbs are installed, so light color is fully customizable by bulb choice. Warm white (2700-3000K) bulbs create a soft, flattering glow for relaxing baths, while daylight bulbs (4000-5000K) are better for task-oriented grooming. The fixture is dimmable when used with dimmable bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch, allowing you to adjust the ambiance from bright task lighting to a soft, mood-lit bath.
Sizing and fit
The Kavi bath vanity measures 31.5 inches wide and 10 inches high, with a projection of 6 inches from the wall. The backplate is 5 inches in diameter, and the shades are 6.25 inches tall by 3.25 inches wide. Plan for a wall space at least 36 inches wide to allow proper clearance on each side. Install 6 feet above the floor (center) for typical bathroom vanities.
