THIS was a FANTASTIC find! We replaced an old, dated hallway sconce with this one and it instantly changed the feel of the entire space. It isn't super bright (Edison bulbs aren't made to be), but it is bright enough. We have only had this light up for about a month and have already received SO many compliments and inquiries on this piece. Nobody can believe how cheap it was, because it certainly doesn't look it! Easy to install, all around top notch buy.
