Question: Anyone recognize this fixture ?Have someone wishing to add more and can't ID manufacture.

Okay, I need more information to help you identify the fixture. Ideally, I'd need a picture or a very detailed description. However, lacking that, let's try to narrow it down by asking you some questions

Please provide as much detail as possible about the fixture. The more information, the better the chances of identification.

1. What kind of fixture is it? (e.g., ceiling light, wall sconce, pendant light, chandelier, recessed light, track lighting, exterior light, bathroom vanity light, etc.)2. Where is it located? (e.g., Kitchen, Bathroom, Living Room, Exterior of the House)3. What is it made of? (e.g., metal - and what kind? - glass, plastic, wood, fabric, etc.)4. What color is it? (e.g., brushed nickel, chrome, black, white, bronze, painted, etc.)5. What shape is it? (e.g., round, square, rectangular, cylindrical, dome-shaped, etc.)6. Does it have any distinctive features? (e.g., crystals, frosted glass, decorative elements, a pull chain, dimmer switch, specific type of bulb it uses, specific design elements, unusual mounting hardware, a particular sticker or label, writing or numbers on the fixture)7. How old is it approximately? (e.g., brand new, a few years old, 10+ years old, vintage/antique)8. How many bulbs does it use?9. Bulb type: Is it an LED fixture with built-in LED's or does it take a specific bulb type (incandescent, fluorescent, halogen, LED replacement bulb)10. Wattage: If you know the wattage, please specify.

Once you provide details, I can give you more specific advice on how to identify it and where to look for a replacement or similar fixture.General tips for identifying fixtures



Look for a label or marking

Often, manufacturers will put their name, model number, or other identifying information on the fixture itself. Look on the inside of the fixture, on the back of the mounting plate, or on the bulb socket.


Search online using keywords

Use descriptive keywords based on what you know about the fixture (e.g., "brushed nickel bathroom vanity light three bulbs"). Google Images, Pinterest, and Houzz are good places to start.

Check with local lighting stores

Take a picture of the fixture to a local lighting store and ask if they recognize it. They may be able to identify the manufacturer or suggest a similar replacement.


Consult a lighting designer or electrician:
