Pretty light! the only reason I knocked one star off is because the stock photo on Wayfair does not display the gold color accurately. Pay attention to customer photos to get a real idea of the gold tone. I did, and for that reason it was great in my home, because it was exactly what I was looking for. It is definitely more of a bronze tone in person. I like that it holds three bulbs though, it puts out a nice amount of light in my breakfast nook.
