I read other reviews before buying these lights for our front entrance.  They replaced large glass and polished brass lights that seemed very 80s.  I wanted lights with a solid top, not glass.  I read somewhere that using a light with a solid top keeps the light focused down rather than up.  I was pleased with the look of the lamps when they arrived very securely packaged.  The metal is a rusty red, there are two lights and the best part is a round brass reflector behind the lights so they are very bright with 40 watt bulbs.  Our old lights had four lights inside but because they were glass all around they were not as bright as these.  I'm very pleased with my purchase.  I have shopped at Wayfair before and have always found their pricing reasonable and their shipping prompt.  Wayfair offers the best in on-line shopping.
