I bought this for our large foyer and it looks great. It has a traditional look but classy and modern flair. I got the antique silver color and it is a little more on the light gold side. Not your grandma's brassy gold, but definitely not silver. It is true to the color pictured so I wasn't surprised but just be careful because the name is deceiving. We have 9 foot ceilings and it is perfect but if you have shorter ceilings I would not suggest it unless it is going over a table.
