A 6-inch, 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in black antique brass with a mercury glass shade, rated for damp locations.
The Athens sconce blends industrial and vintage-inspired design with a black antique brass finish and a mercury glass globe shade. The combination of steel, cast brass, and glass gives it a sturdy, handcrafted feel. It's a versatile accent light for bathrooms, hallways, or entryways where a touch of vintage character is desired.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 in vanity, mounted as side lighting on either side of the mirror
- Hallways and corridors, spaced 6-8 ft apart for ambient accent lighting
- Entryways or mudrooms, mounted at eye level above a console table
- Powder rooms where a compact, damp-rated fixture is needed
Not ideal for
- Large open-plan rooms where a single sconce won't provide sufficient ambient light
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 ft, as the sconce projects 7.44 in from the wall
- Outdoor areas exposed to direct rain, despite damp rating
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a recommended 60W ST64 vintage bulb, expect approximately 800 lumens - bright enough for task lighting at a vanity or accent lighting in a hallway, but not a primary room light.
Light color and feel
Choose your own bulb to set the color temperature. A 2700K-3000K warm white bulb complements the mercury glass shade and antique brass finish, creating a soft, nostalgic glow. The mercury glass diffuses light gently, reducing glare.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 5.88 in wide, extends 7.44 in from the wall, and is 10.12 in tall. The backplate is 4.5 in diameter. It fits comfortably on standard wall spaces and is suitable for rooms with 8 ft or higher ceilings.
