These lights are beautiful. I added them above our island bar and they create such a neat effect on the ceiling (my daughter calls it “fireworks”). I included a photo of the light bulbs I’m using. A more basic bulb had much less of an effect. And since they are only about 18” from the ceiling, hanging them lower would minimize the firework effect as well. The fixture itself is very good quality. The glass is thick and feels luxurious. Our electrician had no trouble installing them but they do need to be hardwired so I wouldn’t have attempted that myself.
