A 6-inch wall sconce with a polished chrome finish and mercury glass shade, ideal for hallways, bathrooms, and accent lighting in transitional to industrial interiors.
The Athens collection combines sleek polished chrome with a mercury glass globe, offering a vintage-industrial look that complements both modern and traditional spaces. The cast brass and steel construction ensures durability, while the ST64 vintage bulb (not included) adds a warm, nostalgic glow.
Best for
- Hallways and corridors, mounted at eye level for ambient accent light
- Bathrooms with damp-rated fixtures, placed beside a vanity mirror
- Living rooms as a reading sconce flanking a sofa or armchair
- Entryways to create a welcoming glow
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting—this is an accent fixture
- Outdoor uncovered areas (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used. With a standard 60W equivalent LED, expect around 800 lumens—suitable for accent or ambient lighting, not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
Use a warm white bulb (2700K-3000K) to complement the mercury glass and polished chrome. The mercury shade diffuses light softly, creating a gentle, vintage-inspired ambiance.
