Auralume Amherst Single Light Pendant Light in Cast Brass

The Amherst 12-Inch 1-Light Stem-Hung Mini Pendant suits buyers who want a fixture that reads classic but still feels clean in a modern home. It gives designers and contractors a predictable size, finish range, and mounting profile to work with.

This fixture is part of the Auralume collection by Innovations Lighting and designer Bruno Marashlian. The Amherst family shape gives it a industrial, restoration-vintage, traditional look, and the fixture is listed for damp location. Use it only in locations that match that rating.

5 Finish Groups and Shade Options

Available finish and shade combinations are listed below:

  • Brushed Brass: Matte White, Clear, Seedy
  • Matte Black: Matte White, Clear, Seedy
  • Polished Nickel: Matte White, Clear, Seedy
  • Satin Gold: Matte White, Clear, Seedy
  • Brushed Satin Nickel: Matte White, Clear, Seedy

Warm brass, gold, and copper finishes pair well with wood vanities, cream tile, stone counters, and unlacquered brass hardware. Polished chrome and polished nickel feel cleaner beside cool counters and reflective faucets. Matte black and oil rubbed bronze add contrast on light walls, while matching shade finishes keep the fixture more understated.

1 Socket Lighting Details

The fixture uses 1 Medium Base (E26) socket rated up to 100 watts each. Bulbs are not included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these ceiling lights come with bulbs included?

Many of our ceiling lights feature integrated LEDs that do not require replacement bulbs. For fixtures that use replaceable bulbs, the product description specifies the type and whether bulbs are included.

Are integrated LED ceiling lights energy efficient?

Yes — integrated LED lighting uses significantly less energy than traditional bulbs and typically lasts 25,000+ hours, reducing both electricity costs and replacement frequency.

Can these ceiling lights be dimmed?

Compatibility with dimmers varies by fixture. Look at the specifications for the words "dimmable" or "compatible with TRIAC/ELV dimmers." If unsure, our support team can confirm before purchase.

What is CRI and why does it matter?

CRI (Color Rendering Index) measures how accurately a light renders colors compared to natural sunlight. A higher CRI (90+) means richer, more true-to-life colors — important for living spaces, kitchens, and bathrooms.

Do ceiling lights require professional installation?

While some fixtures are DIY-friendly, hard-wired ceiling lights generally require a licensed electrician to ensure safe wiring, proper mounting, and code compliance.

What's the difference between flush mount and semi-flush mount lights?

Flush mount lights sit directly against the ceiling — best for low ceilings (under 8 ft). Semi-flush mount lights hang a few inches down for a touch more presence — ideal for 8-10 ft ceilings.

Looks fantastic

Installed this over our breakfast bar last weekend. The pieces were marked clearly enough for a smooth assembly after about a month of use. The length adjustment is precise but not quick after about a month of use. The brushed brass has more depth in person than it does online.

Perfect size

The Auralume feels more substantial in hand than on screen. The mounting nuts are very small, so it helps to work over a tray after about a month of use. For the bedside, this was a good decision overall.

Great for dining

The sheen on the brushed brass is subtle, which suited the room. The fixture feels pleasant in the kitchen island with warm bulbs. The cord relaxed into a straight line by the next day after about a month of use.

Perfect for kitchen

The supplied screws did not have enough length for our ceiling box after about a month of use. In the room, the brushed brass reads warmer than it did on screen. The light lands where needed over the reading corner. The finished installation in the reading corner left a positive impression.

Bright enough

There is no awkward angle on the fixture in the reading corner. The printing on the wire tags is very small after two weeks of use. The small installation snag feels less important now that it is in the reading corner.

Nice warm light

The metal showed handling marks until it was cleaned after two weeks of use. The brightness is useful and reasonably well distributed after two weeks of use. The finished installation in the powder room left a positive impression.

Modern and clean

This was the final piece of our reading corner remodel. The Auralume frame looks precise rather than hastily assembled. The length adjustment is precise but not quick after six weeks of use. A small improvement to the mounting pieces would make a big difference after two weeks of use.

Great statement piece

Installation left a few visible fingerprints that needed wiping off after two weeks of use. The light lands where needed over the powder room after about a month of use. Once everything was aligned, it worked well in the powder room.

Lovely appearance

The surface marks easily during assembly, although it cleans up after two weeks of use. The silhouette stays clean from different viewpoints in the bedside. The light lands where needed over the bedside. It fits the needs of the bedside quite well.
