A 6-inch wall sconce with a mercury glass globe and satin gold finish, ideal for entryways and hallways needing a vintage-industrial accent.
The Athens collection combines heavy cast brass and steel with a satin gold finish, offering a sturdy yet refined look. The mercury glass shade adds a subtle, reflective glow that complements both modern and restoration-vintage decor.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways, mounted as a single accent or in pairs for balanced lighting
- Living rooms and bedrooms as a reading or ambient sconce beside seating or beds
- Damp-rated locations like covered patios or bathrooms away from direct water spray
- Spaces with 8 ft or higher ceilings, where the 13-inch extension provides adequate projection
Not ideal for
- Primary room lighting in large spaces—this is an accent fixture, not a main light source
- Directly above a shower or tub—damp-rated but not wet-rated
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 bulb, expect about 800 lumens—similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for accent or task lighting.
Light color and feel
Bulb color temperature is your choice. A 2700K-3000K warm white bulb creates a cozy, inviting glow that flatters the mercury glass and satin gold finish. The mercury glass diffuses light softly, reducing glare.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 5.88 in wide x 11.88 in high, with a 13.06 in extension from the wall. The backplate measures 4.5 in wide x 7.88 in high. Works well in standard 8 ft ceilings and above.
