This was the first light fixture that captured my attention on Joss and Main. After 2 weeks of looking over what seemed like a zillion lights..I ordered it. I also ordered the 4 light drum pendant, because i wasn't sure which size would look best over my table and in my smaller dining area. My table is 42 x 63. Although the smaller size would have worked as well..I really loved the drama of the larger drum. Because it is open at the bottom I used round white ( not clear) soft bulbs.  I love that this light has an edge to its traditional lines. It is a beautiful gold...with slight copper tones. But don't be afraid of that..its not overwhelming it just adds a depth to the Gold color. My girlfriend bought the smaller light for her table...did not even have to return it!  Well made..easy to hang. I did it myself in approx 30 minutes. Great quality purchase.
