Maxim Lighting Bramwell VX Textured Clear Glass Outdoor Wall Light

Bramwell VX is an outdoor wall light from Maxim Lighting. It comes in 4 sizes: 1-Light, 7 x 12.75 in, 1-Light, 7 x 17.75 in, 1-Light, 7 x 20 in and 3-Light, 9 x 27 in. Textured Clear glass is paired with a Black Patina finish.

The Design Story

Bramwell VX takes the coach lantern and gives it a tall sweeping hood with decorative rivets and textured clear glass. The finish is Black Patina, which reads as aged metal and sits well against dark exterior hardware. Wall, pendant and post versions let the same look run from the front door to the drive, and the Dark Sky friendly design keeps light pointed where it is needed.

Why You’ll Love It

It takes E26 Medium bulbs up to 60W per socket, which makes it easy to choose your own color temperature and brightness. Maxim rates it for Triac or ELV dimming, so pair it with dimmable bulbs. Dark Sky friendly versions are offered. Materials: epmm, steel.

Putting It Together

Maxim posts an assembly sheet for each size: 1-Light, 7 x 12.75 in (PDF), 1-Light, 7 x 17.75 in (PDF), 1-Light, 7 x 20 in (PDF) and 3-Light, 9 x 27 in (PDF). Outdoor fixtures need a weatherproof junction box and a GFCI-protected circuit, so we recommend a qualified electrician for the install.
