We have a very old (probably original to our 1955 house) flushmount fixture currently and ordered this as a replacement. It looks modern and the 2 bulbs with clear glass should provide ample lighting. We have not installed it yet, but it looks more expensive than it was for sure. Our porch ceiling is not pitched so finding a fixture that wouldn't get in the way of the front door and still looked good was slightly challenging but this fit the bill perfectly!
