A 7-inch 1-light wall sconce with a polished chrome finish and mercury glass shade, ideal for entryways and hallways needing a touch of industrial-modern style.
The Preston Cylinder sconce from Innovations Lighting combines industrial-inspired design with versatile customization. Its heavy cast components and polished chrome finish give it a sturdy, contemporary look, while the mercury glass shade adds a vintage touch. This sconce is part of the Edison collection, offering over 100 shade options to match your decor.
Best for
- Entryways and hallways, mounted at eye level to create a welcoming glow
- Living rooms or bedrooms as accent lighting flanking a mirror or artwork
- Damp-rated locations like covered patios or bathrooms (non-shower areas)
- Industrial or modern-contempo interiors where polished chrome and mercury glass complement the palette
- Spaces with 8-ft ceilings or higher, projecting 7.88 inches from the wall
Not ideal for
- Primary room lighting in large spaces—this is an accent sconce, not a main light source
- Wet locations such as exposed outdoor areas without overhead cover
- Very small hallways under 3 ft wide where the 7.88-inch projection may feel intrusive
How bright is it?
Brightness depends on the bulb you choose (not included). With a standard 60W incandescent equivalent LED bulb, expect around 800 lumens—suitable for accent or ambient lighting. For a softer glow, use a 40W equivalent (450 lumens).
Light color and feel
The mercury glass shade diffuses light softly, creating a warm, vintage ambiance. Pair with a 2700K-3000K LED bulb for a cozy, incandescent-like tone. The open-bottom design allows some direct light downward, adding visual interest to the wall.
Sizing and fit
The sconce measures 6.75 inches wide, 14 inches high, and extends 7.88 inches from the wall. The backplate is 4.5 inches in diameter. It fits well on walls with standard stud spacing and is suitable for rooms with at least 8-ft ceilings.
