Know before you buy
Yes, this fixture is specifically rated for wet locations. Its durable concrete construction is designed to withstand direct exposure to the elements, making it suitable for uncovered porches or decks.
Yes, the fixture is dimmable using TRIAC technology. You will need to ensure your wall dimmer switch is compatible with this technology to adjust the light levels for your desired ambiance.
The pendant includes a generous 314-inch cord. It can be shortened during installation to suit the specific height of your ceiling or the desired placement over your outdoor seating area.
Yes, it comes with an energy-efficient 8W LED COB bulb already included. This integrated light source provides a warm 2700K color temperature, perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere outdoors.
The Aplomb provides a focused, direct beam of light downward. Because of its beaker-like shape, it is best used as a task light for a small table or to highlight a specific architectural feature rather than for general area illumination.
While concrete is a sturdy, substantial material, the fixture is designed for standard hardwired installation. We recommend having a professional electrician handle the mounting to ensure it is properly secured to your ceiling structure.
