A 6-inch, 1-light wall sconce with a mercury glass shade and brushed brass finish, ideal for adding warm, vintage-inspired accent lighting in bedrooms, hallways, and living spaces.
The Athens collection combines industrial charm with refined detailing. This sconce features a brushed brass finish on steel and cast brass, paired with a mercury glass globe shade that casts a soft, ambient glow. The vintage-inspired design fits seamlessly into transitional, modern, or restoration-style interiors.
Best for
- Bedrooms as a reading sconce beside the bed, mounted 60-66 inches above the floor
- Hallways and corridors as accent lighting, spaced 6-8 feet apart
- Living rooms flanking a mirror or artwork for balanced ambient light
- Damp-rated bathrooms (vanity areas) where a stylish, compact sconce is needed
Not ideal for
- Primary room lighting in large spaces over 12x12 ft - this is an accent fixture
