A 1-light wall sconce from the Preston Bulb collection, finished in antique copper with a clear globe glass shade, rated for damp locations.
The Preston Bulb sconce features a clear globe shade that showcases the bulb, creating a vintage industrial look. The antique copper finish and heavy cast construction give it a sturdy, contemporary feel. This fixture is UL and ETL listed for damp locations, making it suitable for bathrooms and covered patios.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single vanity or as accent lighting beside a mirror
- Hallways and entryways where a compact, directional light is needed
- Covered patios or porches (damp-rated)
- Bedrooms as a reading sconce beside the bed
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring bright task lighting—this is an accent fixture
- Direct outdoor exposure without overhead cover
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb used. The fixture accepts one medium-base (E26) bulb up to 60W (not included). With a standard 60W incandescent, expect about 800 lumens—similar to a traditional table lamp. For a softer glow, use a 40W bulb.
Light color and feel
Light color is determined by the bulb. The clear globe shade provides minimal diffusion, making the bulb visible. For a warm, inviting ambiance, choose a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulb.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 6.25 inches wide and 14.75 inches high, with a 13.25-inch extension from the wall. The backplate is 4.5 inches wide and 7.88 inches high. It works well in rooms with standard 8-foot ceilings; mount at eye level (60-66 inches from floor) for best effect.
