Fits very well in my 1920's home - compatible with the old brass cabinet hardware in my kitchen, where it was installed.  It provides a nice spread of light over the main food prep/cooking area.  Everyone, so far, thinks it looks great.  I think 60W bulbs will probably provide the lighting level I need.  A caution - if converting from a standard 6" recessed can light, as I did, one will need to come up with a way to cover the opening, as this fixture's mounting canopy is 4 1/2" wide in one dimension.  I used a thin plastic panel (painted to match the ceiling), about an inch wider all around to deal with this.

And, maybe more a Pinterest subject - note the spice cabinet created with an old Chinese checkers board as a door!
