Kichler Hex 14in 2-Light Vanity | Soft Modern Black Steel & Opal Glass | Bathroom Vanity Light | 120V, 2 x 60W Candelabra, Dimmable | Model 55150BK
Kichler Hex 14-inch 2-light vanity light in black with opal glass shades — a soft modern bath fixture designed for double-sink vanities.
Stacking bold geometric shapes give this vanity light a clean, sculptural silhouette. The refined black finish and opal glass globes diffuse a warm, even glow that flatters makeup application and shaving. Well-suited for contemporary and transitional bathrooms, this fixture brings a subtle architectural statement without overwhelming the room.
Best for
- Double-sink vanities 48 in or wider, mounted 6-8 in above the mirror
- Primary and guest bathrooms with a soft modern or transitional style
- Damp-location bathrooms — safe above a tub or shower area
- Powder rooms where you want a compact, sculptural light source
Not ideal for
- Single-sink vanities under 36 in — the 14.25 in width may overhang a narrow mirror
- Dry locations only — this fixture is rated for damp locations and holds up in bathrooms
- Spaces needing bright task lighting from the bulb alone — maximum 60W per socket; use LED for higher output equivalent
How bright is it?
Uses two 60W candelabra-base bulbs (not included). Brightness depends on the bulbs you choose: with two 60W incandescent bulbs, expect about 1600 lumens total — similar to a single 100W bulb, suitable for ambient and task lighting over a vanity. For equivalent brightness with less heat, install two 9W LED candelabra bulbs (approx. 800 lumens each).
Light color and feel
Bulb color is up to you since bulbs are not included. Opal glass shades soften and diffuse the light, reducing glare and creating a warm, even wash. Pair with 2700K-3000K LED bulbs for a warm, flattering glow or 3500K for a neutral task light. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer switch and dimmable bulbs, letting you adjust from bright task light to a soft nighttime ambiance.
