{"product_id":"blackjack-milo-48-vanity-light","title":"Milo 48 in Vanity Light | Blackjack Lighting","description":"\u003cp\u003eMilo is a vanity light drawn with two elements and nothing else: a long, slim tube of frosted acrylic and a small rectangular plate of stamped steel that holds it off the wall. At 48 inches the tube becomes a single horizontal line of light, four feet long and only 2 inches across, floating 4 inches in front of the mirror wall on a plate barely a quarter of its length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frosted tube does the work. Because the LED source runs inside it, the whole length glows evenly with no visible points, giving soft, even light across a wide basin or a double vanity. The Satin Nickel backplate is the only metal on show, a brushed accent that sits naturally with taps and hardware, and it hides the driver inside so the wall stays clean. It is a quiet, architectural fixture that lets the mirror and the stone do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA line of light:\u003c\/strong\u003e the 48 in (122 cm) frosted acrylic tube glows evenly end to end, with no visible LEDs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloating proportion:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 2 in (5 cm) tube held 4 in (10 cm) off the wall by a 12.25 in (31 cm) plate, so the light seems to hover.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiet metalwork:\u003c\/strong\u003e a stamped steel backplate in Satin Nickel, 4.6 in (11.7 cm) tall and 1.3 in (3.3 cm) deep, with the driver tucked inside.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight for the face:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,700 lumens at 3000K and 90 CRI, a soft, even light that renders skin and color naturally.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo control options:\u003c\/strong\u003e standard 120V TRIAC dimming, or 120-277V with 0-10V dimming on the deep backplate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlackjack Lighting, Buffalo Grove, Illinois\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMilo 48 in Vanity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpec Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMLO-48V-SN-12T-30K-SO-DB (120VAC TRIAC);

Trained in industrial design at Syracuse University, Blackman began his lighting career in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group, then founded Blackman Design Associates in 1988, designing decorative and architectural lighting for manufacturers including Kichler. He launched Blackjack in 2013 in suburban Chicago, now based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, to build fixtures conceived for LED from the first sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis argument is that the LED should change the shape of a light, not just its efficiency. Rather than hiding a new source inside old bulb-and-shade forms, Blackjack designs around the small, flat, cool-running LED: thin discs, slim rods, glowing rings and lenses that let the light itself become the object. In his own words, \"Decorative lighting by its nature is not primarily about optimizing lamp efficiency, it is primarily about decoration!\" Milo is that principle on the wall: a slim LED source lets the whole fixture become one glowing tube on a small metal plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the idea behind Milo?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo make a vanity light from a single line of light.
