A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in matte black with a seedy glass shade, ideal for entryways and hallways.
The Athens sconce blends industrial and modern contemporary style with a matte black steel and cast brass frame and a globe-shaped seedy glass shade. Its compact size makes it a versatile accent light for corridors, foyers, and living spaces.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways, mounted at eye level for a warm welcome
- Living rooms or bedrooms as an accent light beside artwork or mirrors
- Damp-rated bathrooms (vanity areas, not directly over shower/tub)
- Covered patios or porches due to damp location certification
- Spaces with 8 ft or higher ceilings
Not ideal for
- Primary room lighting in large spaces (lumens depend on bulb choice)
- Direct outdoor exposure (rated damp, not wet)
- Very narrow hallways under 3 ft wide (extends 7.44 in from wall)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. Using a standard 60W equivalent LED bulb, expect 800 lumens—enough for accent or ambient lighting in a small to medium room. Not intended as a primary light source.
Light color and feel
The seedy glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare. Choose a warm white (2700K-3000K) bulb for a cozy, inviting glow that complements the matte black finish.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 5.88 in wide x 9.62 in high, with a 7.44 in extension from the wall. Backplate: 4.5 in wide x 6.25 in high. Suitable for walls with standard stud spacing.
