The light is a 5star.  Its casts a beautiful shadow on ceiling and is pretty to look at.  The bulb required is a special small LED that isnt very bright but just enough to provide light in an area without being very bright.  I would have preferred it to be a bit larger for my hallway area.  I purchased 2 lights cuz I need 2 lights in same space so thought these would work - and they do quite nicely.  However my particular taste just would have liked larger.
