Looks great for our dining room space, perfect over a 6 seat dining room and goes well with open floor plan.  we have low ceilings in a California ranch, wanted to be able to move table away for larger parties and a low hanging light would be too limiting to alternate seating options.  This looks very nice, brass lends a semi- formal look and shape is timeless, hangs semi flush with room for head clearance should we move the table out.
