I very much like these lights, they look amazing on either side if the mantle. The only issue I have is the clear glass as you can see the lightbulb (I haven't found a fancy bulb yet) as it takes away from the elegance. Maybe a smoked glass would work better. We have had many comments on how unique they are. (We have also had comments that I need to paint my walls ).  However we are very pleased with our purchase.
