Description
A 4-light flush mount ceiling light from the Malcalester collection, finished in matte black with brushed nickel accents and white etched glass, ideal for bedrooms and hallways with low ceilings.
The Malcalester collection combines graceful lines with a transitional aesthetic. This flush mount features a steel frame in matte black with brushed nickel accents, paired with white etched glass shades that diffuse light softly. It's a versatile choice for spaces where a low-profile fixture is needed.
Best for
- Bedrooms with 8-9 ft ceilings, providing ambient light without hanging down
- Hallways and corridors where a low-profile fixture is required
- Entryways and foyers with limited overhead space
- Dining rooms with low ceilings, used as a general light source
- Kitchens with 8 ft ceilings, installed over a sink or prep area
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms or covered outdoor areas - this fixture is rated for damp locations, so it can handle humidity but not direct water exposure
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - the 4 candelabra bulbs provide warm ambient light, not high lumens
How bright is it?
Uses 4 candelabra bulbs up to 60W each (not included). Lumen output depends on bulbs chosen; with 60W incandescent equivalent LED bulbs, expect around 3000-4000 lumens total, suitable for ambient lighting in medium rooms.
Light color and feel
Bulb color temperature is user-selectable. The white etched glass shades create a soft, diffused glow that minimizes glare. The fixture is dimmable when used with compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 16 inches wide x 12.25 inches high. Fits flush to the ceiling, making it suitable for rooms with 8 ft ceilings or higher. The 12-inch height includes the canopy.
