A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in antique brass with a clear glass globe, ideal for damp-rated bathrooms and hallways.
The Athens sconce combines industrial and transitional styling with a sleek antique brass finish and a clear glass orb shade. Its compact 8-inch width makes it a versatile accent light for smaller spaces, while the damp-location rating allows installation in bathrooms and covered outdoor areas. The exposed vintage-style bulb adds a warm, nostalgic touch.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 24-36 in vanity, mounted as a pair on either side of the mirror
- Hallways and corridors needing ambient accent lighting
- Covered patios or entryways where damp-rated fixtures are required
- Powder rooms and small alcoves where space is limited
Not ideal for
- Large open rooms where a single sconce won't provide enough light
- Directly exposed outdoor areas without overhead cover
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. The fixture accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W incandescent equivalent. With a typical 60W LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens - enough for task lighting at a vanity or ambient light in a hallway, but not a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The clear glass shade provides unobstructed light output. Choose a bulb with a color temperature that suits your space: 2700K-3000K warm white for a cozy, traditional feel, or 3500K-4000K cool white for a more modern, crisp look. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulb.
Sizing and fit
The sconce extends 8.5 inches from the wall and measures 8 inches wide by 11.75 inches high. The backplate is 4.5 x 6.25 inches. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; mount at eye level (60-66 inches from floor) for best effect.
