An 8-inch, 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in oil rubbed bronze with a clear glass globe shade, ideal for damp-rated hallway and bathroom accent lighting.
The Athens sconce brings an industrial-modern edge to any space, with a sturdy steel and cast brass construction and a clear glass shade that showcases a vintage ST64 bulb (not included). The oil rubbed bronze finish adds a warm, aged look that complements both contemporary and restoration-style interiors. Adjustable design allows for flexible placement.
Best for
- Hallways and corridors, mounted at eye level for ambient accent light
- Bathrooms with damp-rated fixtures, placed beside a vanity mirror
- Living rooms or bedrooms as a reading sconce flanking a bed or sofa
- Entryways and foyers, adding a warm welcome glow
- Spaces with industrial, modern, or vintage decor themes
Not ideal for
- Outdoor uncovered areas - rated for damp locations only, not wet locations
- Spaces where you need bright task lighting - this is an accent fixture
- Very small walls under 8 inches wide due to the 8-inch width
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 bulb, expect around 800 lumens - similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for ambient or accent lighting. Not intended as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
Use a warm white bulb (2700K-3000K) for a cozy, inviting glow that complements the oil rubbed bronze finish. The clear glass shade provides unobstructed light with a slight filament visibility for a vintage aesthetic. Dimmable with compatible bulbs and dimmer.
