We got these to go above our nightstands - frees up table top space and is just a neat feature to add to our bedroom. The oil rubbed bronze matches the metal we got in our ceiling fixture from the same company. Only reason why I took a star off is you should know that there is no way to turn these on from the fixture - they must be turned on by a switch. Not a big deal since my husband is pretty handy, but it is a little odd that we now have to have light switches next to our bed too. Doesn't affect me enough to send them back. Love the look!
