A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in polished chrome with a clear basket weave glass shade, ideal for damp-rated locations like bathrooms and covered porches.
The Athens sconce combines modern contemporary style with farmhouse charm. Its polished chrome finish and clear basket weave glass shade create a clean, luminous look. Made from steel, cast brass, and glass, this fixture is built to last and adds a touch of elegance to any space.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single or double vanity, mounted as side lighting for grooming tasks
- Hallways and entryways, providing ambient accent light
- Bedrooms as reading sconces beside the bed
- Covered patios or porches, thanks to its damp location rating
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 8 ft if you need the sconce at eye level with a tall backplate
- Direct outdoor exposure to rain or snow (damp rated, not wet rated)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. The fixture accepts one medium base (E26) bulb up to 60W (or LED equivalent). With a standard 60W incandescent, expect about 800 lumens - enough for ambient or task lighting in a small to medium room. For a softer glow, use a 40W bulb (approx. 450 lumens).
Light color and feel
The clear basket weave glass diffuses light gently, creating a warm, inviting glow. For a classic warm white, use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs, allowing you to adjust the mood.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 5.88 inches wide, 10.38 inches high, and extends 7.44 inches from the wall. The round backplate is 4.5 inches in diameter. It's suitable for walls with standard stud spacing. The mounting center to top is 2.5 inches.
