A 1-light wall sconce from the Preston Bulb collection, finished in antique copper with a mercury glass globe shade, ideal for damp-rated locations like bathrooms and covered patios.
The Preston Bulb sconce combines industrial styling with a vintage touch. Its heavy cast brass and steel construction gives it a sturdy, contemporary look, while the mercury glass shade adds a subtle reflective glow. The antique copper finish develops character over time, making it a versatile choice for restoration-vintage or modern decor.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a 30-48 in vanity, mounted as a pair flanking the mirror for balanced task lighting
- Hallways and corridors where a warm accent light is needed every 6-8 ft
- Covered patios or entryways protected from direct rain, thanks to its damp location rating
- Reading nooks or bedside areas when paired with a dimmer for adjustable ambiance
Not ideal for
- Spaces with ceilings under 8 ft if you prefer a flush mount — this sconce extends 13.25 in from the wall
- Primary room lighting in large living rooms or kitchens — it's designed as an accent or task light
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose (not included). With a recommended 60W ST64 vintage bulb, expect about 800 lumens — similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for accent or task lighting. For a softer glow, use a lower-wattage bulb.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, ambient glow. For a classic warm white, use a 2700K-3000K bulb. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs, allowing you to adjust the mood.
