Best for
- Bathrooms with a single or double vanity, mounted as side lighting for grooming
- Hallways and corridors, spaced 6-8 ft apart for ambient accent
- Powder rooms where a compact, damp-rated fixture is needed
- Entryways with a narrow wall space, providing a warm welcome
Not ideal for
- Large open rooms where primary lighting is required—this is an accent sconce
- Outdoor uncovered areas—rated for damp locations only, not wet
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a recommended 60W ST64 vintage bulb, expect about 800 lumens—similar to a standard incandescent, suitable for accent or task lighting.
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, ambient glow. For a warm, incandescent-like feel, use a 2700K-3000K bulb. The fixture is dimmable when paired with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Sizing and fit
The sconce extends 7.88 inches from the wall, with a 6.75-inch wide shade and 14-inch overall height. The backplate is 4.5 inches in diameter. It fits well on walls with at least 8 ft ceilings and can be mounted with the center 2.5 inches from the top.
