Kichler Shae 32in 4-Light Vanity Light | Modern Black Steel with Cased Opal Glass | Bathroom & Powder Room Vanity | 120V Dimmable, A Bulbs | Model 55203BK
A 32-inch wide four-light bathroom vanity light with a modern black finish and cased opal glass shades, designed to adapt to your preferred orientation.
The Shae collection blends soft modern and coastal influences into a fixture that transcends trends. The ribbed arm bar, tapered glass, and refined stacking details work equally well in transitional and contemporary bathrooms. Each fixture can be installed with the glass facing up or down, letting you fine-tune the look to your space.
Best for
- Bathroom vanities 48-60 inches wide, centered above a double sink or a single large basin
- Powder rooms where a horizontal light bar adds both task and ambient illumination
- Soft modern or coastal-inspired bathrooms with warm finishes and natural textures
- Damp-rated locations such as bathrooms with direct shower or tub exposure
- Homes that need a dimmable vanity light for adjustable brightness from morning to evening
Not ideal for
- Small powder rooms under 36 inches wide — the 32-inch fixture may visually overwhelm the space
- Ceiling-mount use; this is designed as a wall-mounted bath vanity light
- Outdoor covered areas not rated for damp conditions (the listed rating is damp-location only)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulbs you choose. This fixture accepts four standard A-type bulbs (max wattage not specified by manufacturer) — typical output with four 60W equivalent LED bulbs is about 3200 lumens, comparable to a bright overhead kitchen light. For a soft ambient glow use 40W equivalent bulbs; for task-level mirror lighting use 60W or higher.
Light color and feel
Color temperature is determined by the bulbs you install; the fixture supports dimmable bulbs (bulbs not included). The cased opal glass diffuses light gently, reducing glare and softening shadows. With warm-white 2700-3000K bulbs the glow feels inviting and spa-like; with 3500-4000K bulbs it shifts to a crisp, clean task light.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 32 inches wide by 9 inches high, with a 5.5-inch extension from the wall. The backplate is 5 inches in diameter. Wall opening height from center is 6.5 inches. It is rated for damp locations and is CETLus listed.
