The quality and appearance of this light fixture is excellent. It looks and feels high-end, and I think it was a great value for the price. I bought it for over a two-story stairway -- not a grand foyer or wide space, but rather a typical-sized stairway to the 2nd floor of our home. The size is perfect. We hung it with both included downrods, and it centered up perfectly in the window over the stairs (see photo). The glass globes are a frosted white and diffuse the light well. (They also hide standard LED bulbs, so I dont have to buy expensive edison bulbs!) I would definitely buy it again!
