I purchased the light bronze finish. It's consistent with a  dark oil-rubbed bronze color. Easily installed. Comes with two metal covers for the cord. Although, our electrician said we could convert it to a hardwire if we wanted.  Swings smoothly. I wish the actual arm was more substantial and sturdier, but it's still great quality.  We had it in our living room and it held up well to regular use. Good price. I would definitely buy it again.
