A 1-light wall sconce from the Athens collection, finished in satin nickel with a mercury glass shade, ideal for damp-rated bathrooms and hallways.
The Athens sconce blends industrial and transitional style with a satin nickel steel and cast brass frame and a globe-shaped mercury glass 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.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single or double vanity, mounted as side lighting above mirrors
- Hallways and corridors needing ambient or accent light
- Powder rooms where a compact, stylish sconce adds character
- Covered patios or entryways rated for damp locations
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is a 1-light accent sconce
- Directly exposed outdoor areas without overhead cover
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb chosen (not included). 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-inspired glow. Pair with a 2700K-3000K LED bulb for a cozy, incandescent-like feel. 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 12.25 inches high. The backplate is 4.5 inches in diameter. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing; mount 60-66 inches above the floor for optimal eye-level placement.
