I had purchased several other smaller lights very similar to this one (from another manufacturer) for other areas of the house.  I needed one that was larger than the other similar ones -- this was exactly the size I needed for the space.  It looks great in my rustic house!  The seed glass gives it unique character.  I like that it takes a normal type bulb and it is easy access to the bulb when you need to change it.  It is nice and bright.  The chain of course can be adjusted to the length you need.
