I searched for a long time to find a light fixture for our dining room. I researched proper size for fixture in regards to room and hanging height. Couldn't be happier than how it turned out. Our dining room is 14x10 (with a small jut out for window area). The table (without extensions) is 39"x69" the fixture is hung so bottom of shade is 31" above table and 29" above table to bottom of fixture. Love the antique gold finish. It is classy and not too shiny or harsh. The light comes with 3 lengths of "pipe" to hang at your desired height. We are using incandescent bulbs so fixture can be on a dimmer. Good amount of light comes from reflection off of ceiling. There is a space for spotlight at bottom of light and a hand operated button for 3 settings (only spotlight, only candelabra lights and all on). the only issue we've had is hanging it perfectly straight but this is due to the junction box in ceiling being slightly off, not due to the fixture.
