Visual Comfort Dola 10 LED Flush Mount by Mick De Giulio – 9.9-Inch, Dimmable, Damp Rated

Mick De Giulio's Dola 10: 9.9" across and 5.5" deep, 1,167 lumens at 90 CRI in 2700K, rated for damp indoor locations and covered outdoor spaces.

Dola, by Mick De Giulio, refines an industrial idea: a clean cylindrical metal body holds a softly curved milk glass dome, and a twist-lock construction hides every piece of hardware. The Dola 10 is 9.9 inches across and gives 1,167 lumens of warm 2700K light.

The Dola 10 measures 9.9" across and sits 5.5" deep from the ceiling, on a 9.9" × 9.9" round canopy. It comes in Bronze and Hand-Rubbed Antique Brass.

Installation & sizing

How to size and place the 9.9" Dola 10 (Visual Comfort’s ceiling-light guidance plus our rule of thumb):

• Room size (our rule of thumb): add the room’s length and width in feet; a fixture about that many inches across looks in proportion. At 9.9" the Dola 10 suits rooms of roughly 4 × 6 ft (a bath, hallway, laundry or walk-in closet); in a bigger room, choose a larger size or use two
• Profile: 5.5" from the ceiling, a low profile that suits 8 ft ceilings with plenty of headroom
• Long hallways: one every 8–10 ft, centered on the hall (our advice)
• Canopy: 9.9" x 9.9" Round

Room sizes are a rule of thumb (room length plus width in feet roughly equals the fixture width in inches); go a size up for 9-foot-plus ceilings or rooms you want brighter. It fastens to a standard ceiling junction box and is hardwired, so have a licensed electrician install it.

Who this is not for

• Fully exposed outdoor locations: it is rated for covered outdoor spaces, not direct rain.
• Anyone who wants 3000K or 3500K or tunable white: it comes in 2700K only.
• Anyone who needs bright task light from one fixture: plan extra lighting.

Why we carry it

We have been curating design-led lighting since 2009. Dola is a design-led utility light: sized for bedrooms, baths and halls, with nothing visible but metal and glass.

Buy once: durability and care

The LED is built in, so there are no bulbs to buy or replace. Clean crystal or glass with a soft, lint-free cloth, power off and cool; avoid ammonia and abrasive cleaners (our advice). Natural and hand-rubbed brass are living finishes that patina and warm with age; Visual Comfort notes a brass cleaner can restore an uneven patina. Dust the frame with a dry microfiber cloth, power off. Installation is hardwired, so use a licensed electrician.

Frequently asked questions

What size room is the Dola 10 right for?

A handy rule of thumb: add the room's length and width in feet, and choose a fixture about that many inches across. At 9.9", the Dola 10 suits rooms of roughly 4 × 6 ft (a bath, hallway, laundry or walk-in closet); in a bigger room, choose a larger size or use two; size up for 9-foot-plus ceilings.

How far does the Dola 10 come down from the ceiling?

It is 5.5" deep from the ceiling, a low profile that works under 8-foot ceilings, in hallways and in bedrooms.

How bright is the Dola 10?

Visual Comfort lists 1,167 delivered lumens from 18.9 W of integrated LED, at 90 CRI and 2700K. Treat it as decorative, mood lighting and add task lights where you need them.

What dimmer works with the Dola 10?

Visual Comfort lists it as dimmable with most LED-compatible ELV, TRIAC or 0-10V dimmers. Check the dimming chart on the spec sheet before choosing a specific model.

Can the Dola 10 go in a bathroom or on a covered porch?

Yes. It is rated for damp indoor locations and covered outdoor spaces, so a large bathroom, covered porch or loggia works. It is not rated for direct rain.

Does the Dola 10 need bulbs?

No. The LED is integrated and included, rated for 50,000 hours to L70 on Visual Comfort's spec sheet, so there is nothing to buy at installation.

Which Dola 10 finish should I choose?

It comes in Bronze and Hand-Rubbed Antique Brass. Our styling advice: brass warms wood, cream and terracotta palettes (natural and hand-rubbed brass are living finishes that patina over time); bronze is deep and moody, good with dark woods and leather.
