A single-light wall sconce with a clear water glass globe, finished in brushed satin nickel, for hallways, bathrooms, and accent walls.
The Athens Water Glass sconce pairs a clear glass orb shade with a brushed satin nickel frame, blending industrial and transitional styles. The exposed vintage bulb adds a warm, nostalgic glow, making it a versatile choice for damp-rated locations like bathrooms.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 24-36 in vanity, mounted as side lighting above the mirror
- Hallways and corridors, spaced 6-8 ft apart for even ambient light
- Entryways and foyers, used as accent lighting near a console table
- Bedrooms as reading sconces flanking the bed
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is an accent fixture with a single bulb
- Outdoor uncovered areas - damp-rated but not wet-rated
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W ST64 vintage bulb (not included), expect around 800 lumens - similar to a standard 60W incandescent, suitable for accent and ambient lighting.
Light color and feel
Use a 2700K-3000K warm white bulb for a soft, golden glow that complements the clear glass and nickel finish. The open design allows the bulb to be a visual feature.

The sconce extends 8.5 in from the wall, with a backplate of 4.5 in wide by 6.25 in tall. Overall dimensions: 8 in wide, 11.75 in high. Best for walls with at least 12 in of clearance.
