A mid-century modern 1-light wall sconce with a matte black cone shade and burnished brass accents, rated for damp locations like bathrooms and covered patios.
The Outpost wall sconce combines open, airy design with industrial charm. A cone-shaped metal shade suspends on slim rods, revealing the decorative burnished brass socket and a vintage-style bulb. The matte black finish on the shade pairs beautifully with the burnished brass backplate, creating a look that fits mid-century modern, industrial, and transitional interiors.
Best for
- Bathrooms with damp-rated fixtures, mounted as vanity side lights or above a mirror
- Hallways and entryways where a compact accent light adds character
- Covered patios or porches protected from direct rain
- Bedrooms as bedside reading lights (dimmable with compatible dimmer and bulb)
- Powder rooms needing a small, stylish light source
Not ideal for
- Large rooms requiring high ambient brightness - this is an accent light, not a primary room light
- Outdoor areas exposed to direct rain or water spray (damp-rated only, not wet-rated)
- Spaces where a flush mount or semi-flush is preferred due to low ceilings
How bright is it?
Uses one 60-watt incandescent medium base bulb (not included). With a standard 60W bulb, expect about 800 lumens - similar to a traditional living room lamp, suitable for accent or task lighting. For a softer glow, use a lower wattage or dimmable LED bulb.
Light color and feel
Light color depends on the bulb you choose. For a warm, inviting glow, use a 2700K-3000K LED bulb. The open shade design allows light to spread both upward and downward, creating a balanced ambient effect. Dimmable when used with a compatible dimmer and dimmable bulb.
Sizing and fit
Overall dimensions: 7.75 inches long x 7 inches wide x 9.75 inches high. The compact size makes it ideal for narrow hallways, small bathrooms, or as a pair flanking a mirror. Installation direction can be up or down, giving flexibility in placement.
