Really great contemporary light. Our style is organic modern mixed with coastal and these wire pendants really tie together the white cabinets and quartz countertops to a more "natural" and relaxed feel of the house. They're fairly large - you can see from the proportion of the standard bulb inside, and they have a fair amount of extra slack hidden in the ceiling. We have 8ft ceilings but can work for 10-12ft ceilings. They're sturdy, well crafted. Do not get dusty easily. No shadows from the wires!
