Brushed Nickel Bathroom Vanity Light — Three Clear Glass Shades, Up or Down Mounting

This three-light bathroom vanity fixture is sized for the wall above a standard mirror, or for a bar or powder room run where three even sources beat one central lamp. The brushed nickel metal body carries three clear glass shades, and the fixture can be mounted with the shades facing up or down depending on how tightly you want the light on the vanity surface.

Each of the three E26 sockets takes up to 60W, and the fixture is dimmable when paired with dimmable bulbs and a compatible wall dimmer. Clear glass is the deliberate choice here: it lets a decorative bulb read as part of the design and keeps the light bright and unmuddied.

Product Schema

Design Story

Vanity lighting has one job that overshadows aesthetics — it has to light a face evenly. A single ceiling fixture casts shadows under the brow and nose, which is why uprights and overheads are the usual pairing in a properly lit bathroom. This fixture addresses the overhead half, and its three-shade spread is the reason it works: three small sources at close spacing read as one broad, low-contrast wash rather than three hot spots.

The metal body is finished in brushed nickel, chosen for its resistance to oxidation and color fade in the damp, humid air that bathrooms generate daily. Clear glass shades are specified rather than frosted because they preserve output and let an Edison or globe bulb contribute to the look. The mounting is reversible, so the same fixture can throw light upward for bounce and ambience or downward for direct task light over a sink.

Standard E26 sockets keep the fixture serviceable, so a burned-out bulb is a one-minute swap rather than a fixture replacement.

Where It Works Best

Bathroom vanity over a mirror. Mount the fixture so the shades sit at forehead height above the mirror, then set the arms downward so light falls onto the face and counter rather than into your eyes. Three shades over a 30- to 48-inch vanity give broad coverage that a single pendant cannot. Pair with a rectangular mirror and a white counter; the nickel finish holds up against polished chrome taps while reading slightly softer than bright chrome.

Kitchen or bar counter task light. The same proportions suit a short bar run or a counter area where you want focused light over glasses and bottles. Three clear-glass shades over a 4-foot bar section put working light exactly where hands are, and the up-facing option bounces a soft wash onto the ceiling to lift a dark corner. Spacing questions for task runs are answered in the Lighting Design Guides.

Corridor, powder room or dining accent. In a corridor or powder room where full-room lighting is overkill, this fixture does the job of a decorative wall piece as well as a light source. The clear glass lets a filament bulb become the visual detail, which suits rustic and farmhouse schemes as easily as contemporary ones. Coordinating fixtures appear in Design Inspiration & Ideas, with the wider range in the Full Lighting Collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to install, and what tools are needed?

It is a hardwired fixture, so it connects to an existing wall junction box with the wiring supplied, and all mounting hardware is included. A screwdriver, wire strippers, a voltage tester and a drill for the wall anchors cover the job. If you are not comfortable working with household wiring, a qualified electrician can fit it in a short visit; most people complete the swap in under an hour.

What bulb types and dimmers work with it?

The fixture has three standard E26 sockets, each rated to a maximum of 60W, and is compatible with LED, CFL and incandescent bulbs as well as decorative Edison shapes. Bulbs are not included, so choose your own. It is fully dimmable when you fit dimmable bulbs and connect the fixture to a compatible wall dimmer switch — the dimmer itself is also a separate purchase.

What are the dimensions, and how do I check the fit?

The backplate and fixture measure 16.93 inches wide and about 11 inches high, with each glass shade around 5.91 inches tall and 3.94 inches across. Check that the fixture width sits inside your mirror or cabinet span and that there is clearance above it for the shades in either the up or down position. Confirm the wall junction box location lines up with the fixture backplate before drilling.

How should I clean and maintain the fixture?

Switch the power off at the breaker and let the bulbs cool before cleaning. Wipe the brushed nickel body with a dry microfibre cloth; the brushed finish hides fingerprints well and does not need metal polish, which can leave residue in the grain. Clean the clear glass shades with a mild soapy solution and dry them fully before refitting, and handle them carefully as they are shipped loose.

How is shipping handled, and how long does delivery take?

Orders are processed within 3–5 business days, and standard delivery takes 7–15 business days with tracking provided. The fixture ships in protective foam-in-box packaging with the glass shades wrapped separately from the metal body, and the mounting hardware bagged, so the shades arrive intact.

What are the return and warranty terms?

Returns are accepted within 30 days on unused items in original packaging. LIGHTEXP provides a 24-month warranty covering structural components and the light module under normal residential use. Inspect the glass shades as soon as the box is open and before installation, since transit is where glass damage most often occurs.
