This light fixture is simple but adds a bit of flair to my traditional kitchen eat in area. I’m not a traditional gal but alas I can’t completely remodel my kitchen at this point so this fixture brings in a more funky eclectic vibe. The color is a pretty brushed gold. It gives off a good amount of light but is not super bright. I took off one star because one of the arms was bent at a slightly different angle than the rest. I didn’t notice it until it was already hung so I just spun it to the back and it is hardly noticeable. If you are a perfectionist make sure you adjust the arms (it comes packed flat and the arms fold into place) and have someone hold it up for inspection before you hardwire it. Otherwise I would totally recommend this fixture.
