A 6-inch, 1-light wall sconce with a clear water glass globe and satin gold finish, damp-rated for bathrooms and covered patios.
The Athens Water Glass sconce combines industrial steel and cast brass with a clear water glass shade, finished in satin gold. Its compact size and versatile style suit transitional, modern, and restoration-vintage interiors. The exposed vintage bulb adds a warm, nostalgic glow.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 in vanity, mounted in pairs flanking the mirror
- Hallways and corridors as accent lighting every 6-8 ft
- Covered patios or entryways rated for damp locations
- Bedrooms as reading sconces beside the bed
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 7 ft due to the 9.75 in height
- Primary room lighting in large living areas—this is an accent fixture
How bright is it?
Lumen output depends on the bulb used (not included). With a standard 60W equivalent LED, expect 800 lumens—bright enough for task or ambient accent lighting. For a softer glow, use a 40W equivalent.
Light color and feel
Choose your bulb's color temperature. A 2700K-3000K warm white creates a cozy, inviting atmosphere that flatters skin tones and warm finishes. The clear glass shade provides unobstructed light distribution.
Sizing and fit
The sconce extends 7.5 in from the wall, with a 6 in wide shade and 9.75 in height. The backplate measures 4.5 in wide by 6.25 in tall. Ideal for walls with standard stud spacing.
