This Schaff Wall Sconce works perfectly to spotlight a small breakfast nook/bistro area in my kitchen. Each lamp holds a 60 watt bulb so the light is rather intense.  I might use lower watt bulbs at some point but, I love how it focuses the light directly downward on the table making it an excellent work space or place to sit and read the paper. The Dust Bronze paint is tastefully done, too. I am very satisfied with this purchase.
