A 6-inch, 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in matte black with a clear basket weave glass shade, ideal for hallways and bathrooms.
The Athens sconce blends modern contemporary style with farmhouse charm. Its matte black finish and clear basket weave glass shade create a textured, transparent look that complements a variety of decor. Crafted from steel, cast brass, and glass, this fixture is built to last and adds a touch of industrial-inspired elegance to any space.
Best for
- Hallways and corridors, mounted at eye level to provide ambient accent lighting
- Bathrooms with damp-rated fixtures, placed beside a mirror or over a vanity
- Entryways and foyers, adding a warm welcome with a vintage bulb
- Bedrooms as a reading sconce on either side of the bed
- Living rooms or dining rooms as part of a gallery wall or accent lighting scheme
Not ideal for
- Outdoor uncovered areas - this fixture is rated for damp locations only, not wet locations
- Spaces where bright task lighting is needed - this sconce provides accent/ambient light, not primary illumination
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. This sconce accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W (or LED equivalent). Using a 60W incandescent equivalent LED (about 800 lumens) provides ample ambient light for a hallway or bathroom. For a softer glow, use a 40W equivalent (about 450 lumens). Bulb not included.
Light color and feel
The clear basket weave glass shade diffuses light gently, creating a warm, inviting glow. Pair with a vintage ST64 bulb for an Edison-style look, or choose an LED bulb with a warm color temperature (2700K-3000K) for a cozy atmosphere. The fixture is dimmable when used with a dimmable bulb and compatible dimmer switch.
