Mercer is a transitional bath light from Framburg, the Illinois lighting house that has handcrafted fixtures since 1905.
The Design Story
Cast backplates and solid metal parts give Mercer real substance; glass in white or clear seedy.
Framburg forms, finishes and assembles its fixtures in the Chicago area, one of the few lighting makers still doing the whole job in the United States. Its lights have hung in landmark institutions, including the White House.
