A 1-light wall sconce with a mercury glass globe and black antique brass finish, ideal for damp-rated indoor spaces like bathrooms and entryways.
The Preston Bulb sconce combines industrial cast brass construction with a vintage-inspired mercury glass shade. The Edison collection's heavy cast components give it a sturdy, contemporary look, while the black antique brass finish and matte black backplate add a refined touch. This fixture is UL and ETL listed for damp locations, making it suitable for bathrooms and covered porches.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 in vanity, mounted as a pair flanking the mirror
- Hallways and corridors needing accent lighting with a vintage feel
- Living rooms or bedrooms as a reading sconce beside a bed or chair
- Covered patios or entryways rated for damp locations
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting - this is an accent fixture at 1-light
- Outdoor areas exposed to direct rain (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb used (not included). With a standard 60W incandescent equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens - suitable for ambient or accent lighting, not as a primary room light.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, vintage glow. Use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb for a warm white tone that complements the antique brass finish.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 6.25 in wide x 13 in high, with a 7.62 in extension from the wall. Backplate is 4.5 in diameter. Mounting center to top is 2.5 in. Works well in rooms with standard 8 ft ceilings.
