The Design Story

Cascade centers on a solid block of bubble glass set in a black aluminum housing, lit from above by an LED hidden in the top. The glass glows from within and the housing recedes, giving a sculptural, modern accent beside a door or along a wall. Rated for wet locations, it works for entries, patios and garden walls.

Why You’ll Love It

Putting It Together

Maxim posts an assembly sheet for each size: 4.75 x 13.75 in, outlet 6.5 in from top (PDF), 4.75 x 13.75 in, outlet 7 in from top (PDF), 6.5 x 13.75 in (PDF), 7 x 16 in (PDF) and 7 x 21 in (PDF). Outdoor fixtures need a weatherproof junction box and a GFCI-protected circuit, so we recommend a qualified electrician for the install.
