Know before you buy
This is an authentic vintage fixture dating back to the 1950s, handcrafted in Italy. It features genuine aged brass and period-correct glasswork.
This flush mount uses three E12 candelabra base bulbs. We recommend choosing warm-toned bulbs to best complement the rippled glass and aged brass finish.
No, this specific vintage fixture is not compatible with dimmer switches. It is designed for standard on-off hardwired operation.
The fixture has a 10-inch diameter and sits 6 inches from the ceiling. Its compact, flush-mount profile makes it ideal for hallways, entryways, or rooms with lower ceilings.
The brass features a natural aged patina, which is part of its vintage character. To maintain its appearance, simply dust the fixture periodically with a soft, dry cloth; avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could strip the finish.
This fixture is intended for dry, indoor environments. It is not rated for damp or wet locations, so it should not be installed in bathrooms or areas with high humidity.
