A 1-light swing arm sconce with a matte black finish and seedy glass shade, ideal for reading nooks and bedside lighting.
The Athens collection combines heavy cast components with a sleek, adjustable swing arm, offering a sturdy contemporary look that fits seamlessly into industrial, modern, and transitional interiors. The matte black finish and seedy glass shade add vintage character while the adjustable arm directs light exactly where needed.
Best for
- Bedrooms, mounted beside the bed as a reading light with adjustable swing arm
- Living rooms, positioned over an armchair or sofa for task lighting
- Home offices, providing focused light for desks or reading areas
- Hallways and entryways, used as accent lighting with adjustable direction
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms with direct shower exposure – damp-rated but not wet-rated
- Spaces requiring bright overhead illumination – this is a focused accent light
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a standard 60W equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens – bright enough for reading or task lighting, but not for primary room illumination.
Light color and feel
The seedy glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare. Use a warm white bulb (2700K-3000K) for a cozy, inviting glow that complements the vintage-industrial aesthetic. Dimmable if paired with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulb.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 5.88 in wide, 11.38 in high, with a 12.44 in extension from the wall. Backplate measures 4.5 in wide x 7.88 in high. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; the swing arm allows flexible positioning.
