A 6-inch wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in satin gold with a clear basket weave glass shade, ideal for damp-rated locations like bathrooms or covered patios.
The Athens sconce combines industrial style with vintage charm. Its satin gold finish and clear basket weave glass create a textured, warm glow. Made from steel, cast brass, and glass, this fixture is built to last and fits seamlessly into modern, contemporary, or restoration-vintage decor.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single vanity or as a pair flanking a mirror, rated for damp locations
- Hallways and entryways as accent lighting, mounted at eye level
- Covered patios or porches where damp-rated fixtures are required
- Bedrooms as reading sconces beside the bed, paired for balanced light
Not ideal for
- Directly exposed outdoor areas without overhead cover (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
- Spaces where you need bright task lighting for detailed work (single bulb, accent output)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 vintage bulb (not included), expect around 800 lumens—similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for ambient or accent lighting, not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The clear basket weave glass diffuses light softly, creating a warm, textured glow. Pair with a 2700K-3000K bulb for a cozy, incandescent-like ambiance that flatters skin tones and warm finishes.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 5.88 in wide x 12.12 in high, with a 13.06 in extension from the wall. The backplate measures 4.5 in wide x 7.88 in high. Ideal for walls with standard 8-9 ft ceilings; the compact size works well in smaller spaces.
