A 7-inch, 1-light wall sconce from the Preston Cylinder collection, finished in Black Antique Brass with a clear glass shade, rated for damp locations like bathrooms and covered porches.
The Preston Cylinder sconce combines industrial styling with refined materials: a steel and cast brass body in Black Antique Brass, paired with a clear Preston Cylinder glass shade. The Edison-inspired design allows customization with over 100 shade options, but this version comes ready with a clear globe that shows off a vintage ST64 bulb (not included). The fixture is UL and ETL listed for damp locations, making it versatile for both indoor and covered outdoor spaces.
Best for
- Bathrooms with a single or double vanity, mounted as side lights for task lighting
- Hallways and corridors, spaced 6-8 ft apart for ambient light
- Covered patios or porches where damp-rated fixtures are required
- Entryways or mudrooms, mounted at eye level for a warm welcome
- Bedrooms as reading sconces beside the bed, paired with a dimmer
Not ideal for
- Uncovered outdoor areas exposed to direct rain or snow (damp-rated, not wet-rated)
- Spaces where you need bright task lighting for detailed work (one 60W-equivalent bulb provides accent-level light)
- Very small powder rooms under 3 ft wide if you need two sconces flanking a mirror (the 7.88-inch projection may feel tight)
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose. With a standard 60W incandescent equivalent LED bulb (about 800 lumens), this sconce provides comfortable ambient or accent light. For a softer glow, use a 40W equivalent (450 lumens). The fixture is dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulbs.
Light color and feel
Choose your bulb's color temperature to set the mood: 2700K-3000K warm white creates a cozy, incandescent-like glow that flatters skin tones and warm finishes like the Black Antique Brass. 3500K-4000K cool white gives a more modern, crisp light. The clear glass shade provides minimal diffusion, so the bulb's filament or shape is visible.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 6.75 inches wide, extends 7.88 inches from the wall, and is 14 inches tall. The round backplate is 4.5 inches in diameter. It works well in rooms with standard 8-9 ft ceilings. For bathrooms, mount 60-66 inches above the floor for side lighting, or 66-72 inches for above-mirror mounting.
