Know before you buy
The Signal Flush Mount is designed for focused, ambient illumination. While it effectively lights hallways and smaller rooms, you may want to pair it with additional recessed lighting or lamps if you are using it as the sole light source in a large kitchen or bedroom.
The fixture is crafted from living materials like Hewn Brass and Bronze, which are designed to develop a natural, authentic patina as they age. This process adds character and depth to the metal, though the rate of change depends on the humidity and light exposure in your specific environment.
The pull chain is a fully functional switch, allowing you to operate the light directly at the fixture. If you prefer to control the light exclusively via a wall switch, you can order the fixture without the pull chain mechanism.
The Signal Flush Mount is UL and CE approved for standard indoor use. It is not rated for wet or damp locations, so it should not be installed directly inside a shower or in areas with high moisture levels.
Yes, the included 5W LED bulb is dimmable. To ensure smooth performance, we recommend using a compatible LED-rated dimmer switch.
The canopy measures 9 inches in diameter, which provides a substantial base for the fixture. The total height from the ceiling to the bottom of the 6-inch glass globe is 8 inches, making it a low-profile choice for rooms with standard or lower ceiling heights.
