Quick Answer
Choose the Dilworth Flush Mount with Scallop Shade for a compact, decorative look, or the Globe Shade version for a taller, more open silhouette.
Shade Style and Visual Impact
The scallop shade features a distinctive rippled edge that adds vintage charm and diffuses light softly, making it ideal for cozy spaces. The globe shade offers a clean, rounded profile that feels more traditional and provides a broader spread of light.
Both shades use opal glass, which helps soften the glow from a single E26 bulb (60W max, not included). Your choice here really comes down to whether you want a decorative focal point or a more understated ceiling light.
Size and Fit for Your Room
The Scallop Shade model measures 9 inches deep, 9 inches wide, and 13 inches high, making it a compact flush mount that works well in hallways, bathrooms, or over a bedside table. The Globe Shade version is slightly larger at 10 inches deep, 10 inches wide, and 17 inches high, so it suits rooms with higher ceilings or where you want a more substantial presence.
Both fixtures are rated for damp locations and carry UL/cUL safety certifications, so they can be used in bathrooms or covered patios.
Scallop vs Globe: Trade-Offs at a Glance
- Shade Design: Scallop shade has a decorative rippled edge that adds vintage character; globe shade has a smooth, rounded profile for a cleaner look. Choose scallop for charm, globe for simplicity.
- Fixture Height: Scallop is 13 inches tall; globe is 17 inches tall. Both are flush mounts, but the globe extends lower. Scallop suits lower ceilings better.
- Light Distribution: Scallop shade directs light downward with a softer edge pattern; globe shade spreads light more evenly in all directions. Globe offers more ambient coverage.
