A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in Black Antique Brass with a mercury glass shade, ideal for bathrooms and hallways.
The Athens sconce combines industrial and transitional styling with a sleek Black Antique Brass finish and a mercury glass globe shade. The steel and cast brass construction ensures durability, while the damp location rating makes it suitable for bathrooms. The vintage ST64 bulb (not included) adds a nostalgic touch.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 in vanity, mounted as side lighting beside the mirror
- Hallways and corridors, spaced 4-6 ft apart for even ambient light
- Entryways and foyers, used as accent lighting above a console table
- Bedrooms as reading sconces flanking the bed
Not ideal for
- Outdoor uncovered areas - this fixture is rated for damp locations only, not wet locations
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is a 1-light accent sconce
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb used. With a standard 60W equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens - suitable for accent or ambient lighting, not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, vintage glow. Use a 2700K-3000K bulb for a warm white tone that complements the antique brass finish.
Sizing and fit
The sconce extends 8.5 in from the wall, with a backplate diameter of 4.5 in. Overall dimensions: 8 in wide x 12.25 in high. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing.
