A 1-light swing arm lamp in antique brass with a clear basket weave glass shade, ideal for reading nooks and bedside tables.
The Athens swing arm lamp combines modern farmhouse style with functional design. The antique brass finish and clear basket weave glass shade create a warm, inviting look. The adjustable swing arm allows you to direct light exactly where you need it, making it perfect for reading or task lighting.
Best for
- Living rooms and family rooms, mounted beside a sofa or armchair for reading
- Bedrooms, installed as a bedside reading lamp with adjustable arm
- Home offices, providing focused task lighting on a desk
- Damp-rated bathrooms, mounted beside a vanity mirror
Not ideal for
- Large rooms requiring overhead ambient lighting - this is a task/accent light
- Spaces with very low ceilings where the swing arm cannot fully extend
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose (not included). We recommend a 60W equivalent ST64 vintage bulb for a warm, ambient glow. With a standard medium base, you can use up to a 100W equivalent LED bulb for brighter task lighting.
Light color and feel
The clear basket weave glass shade diffuses light softly, reducing glare while still allowing the bulb's shape to be visible. For a warm, cozy feel, use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
The swing arm extends 13.5 inches from the wall, with an 8-inch wide shade. The backplate measures 4.5 x 7.88 inches. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; the arm can be positioned up or down. Works well in rooms with 8-foot ceilings or higher.
