NUVO Lighting 60-7180 Bransel, 1-Light, Mini Pendant Fixture, Brushed Nickel Finish with Clear Seeded Glass

The Bransel 60-7180 is a rod-mounted ceiling pendant with a maximum overall height of 44.49 inches. It ships with two 6 inch rods and two 12 inch rods, so you can stack them to reach the drop you want, plus 12 feet of supply wire. The fixture body itself is 7.25 inches tall, so the rest of that 44.49 inches is rod and canopy. For a drop longer than the maximum, you'd need a different fixture.

It takes one medium base (E26) A19 lamp up to 60W, and no bulb is included, so order lamps separately. Dimming depends entirely on the lamp you install, the fixture has no driver of its own, so pair a dimmable LED A19 with a compatible dimmer if you want control.

Only in dry locations. The Bransel pendant is rated for indoor dry locations, which rules out covered porches, exterior soffits, and any spot exposed to moisture or shower spray. Over an island or a dining table is fine. Directly above a sink or inside a tub/shower zone calls for a damp or wet rated fixture instead.

The fixture weighs 2.27 lbs, well within what any standard listed ceiling outlet box will carry, so no bracing or fan-rated box is needed. Mounting is by rod to the ceiling canopy.

Each one is only 5 inches in diameter with a 5 x 5.63 inch cylindrical glass shade, so it is a small-scale fixture. Mini pendants that narrow are normally hung in a row of two or three over an island rather than used alone, since a single 5 inch shade reads as an accent. Each fixture is a single-lamp unit at 60W max, so plan your circuit load off the number you hang.

Clear seeded glass, meaning you see through it with small air bubbles cast into the glass. The filament or LED lamp inside is visible, so choose a bulb you don't mind looking at. The shade is a glass cylinder on a brushed nickel steel body, a transitional look rather than strictly modern or traditional.

Yes. Lead is identified as a California Proposition 65 chemical for this fixture, which matters if you are shipping or installing in California and have disclosure obligations on the job.
