An 8-inch, 1-light wall sconce from the Athens Water Glass collection, finished in oil rubbed bronze with a clear water glass shade, ideal for damp-rated locations like bathrooms and covered patios.
The Athens Water Glass sconce combines industrial cast brass and steel construction with a clear globe glass shade that showcases a vintage ST64 bulb (not included). The oil rubbed bronze finish adds a rustic, timeless look that complements modern contemporary and restoration-vintage decor. With a damp location rating, this fixture is versatile enough for bathrooms, entryways, and covered outdoor areas.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single vanity or as a pair flanking a mirror, rated for damp locations
- Covered patios or porches where a damp-rated sconce is needed
- Hallways and entryways as accent lighting with a vintage industrial feel
- Bedrooms as reading sconces beside the bed, paired for balanced light
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 8 ft if you need the sconce mounted high—the fixture extends 14.12 in from the wall
- Direct rain or wet locations—this sconce is damp-rated, not wet-rated
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W equivalent ST64 bulb (not included), expect around 800 lumens—similar to a traditional 60W incandescent, suitable for accent or ambient lighting in smaller spaces.
Light color and feel
Use a 2700K-3000K warm white bulb for a soft, golden glow that flatters skin tones and warm finishes like oil rubbed bronze. The clear glass shade provides unobstructed light with a vintage filament look.
