We bought 2 of the brass finish for either side of our bed. They're on the small side, but that works for us. If you're looking for a simple, clean light, this is a great option. If you're looking for an extremely high end light, maybe or maybe not, as it was a little tricky getting the metal rod that covers the cord to line up perfectly plumb. But, for our needs, they're perfect. We would buy them again.
