Know before you buy
This fixture uses a single E26 medium base bulb with a maximum wattage of 60 watts. It is compatible with standard incandescent, LED, or CFL bulbs that fit this base.
While the fixture is designed for standard ceiling mounting, its compatibility with sloped ceilings depends on the specific canopy hardware included. We recommend consulting with a professional electrician to ensure it can be safely installed on an angled surface.
The fixture measures 15 inches in height. Please check your ceiling height and the intended placement area to ensure the drop length provides adequate clearance for your space.
The white glass shade is designed to soften the light output, providing a warm, diffused glow rather than a harsh, direct beam. This makes it an excellent choice for ambient lighting in kitchens, hallways, or dining areas.
Yes, this pendant is compatible with most standard wall dimmers, provided you use a dimmable bulb. Using a dimmer allows you to easily adjust the intensity of the light to suit the mood of your room.
