I got this for my back porch, which is not enclosed, but is protected by a roof. It has been up for 2 years or so, and no sign of corrosion or fading. By design,the glass looks like it has rain drops on it, that is even more apparent when the light is on, very pretty. It is open at the bottom so it is easy to replace bulbs and clean. Very pleased with the light and Wayfair's customer service.
