This light was lovelier than I expected.  I used it in a small bathroom that I wanted to give  a romantic feel.  The small crystals sparkle but are not overwhelming.  It gives off plenty of light.  I'm extremely happy with my purchase.  (Disclosure: This light is not rated for use in wet areas such as a bathroom.  This bathroom doesn't get much use, so I used it anyway.)

It has been up for 1 year now and the finish is still like new.  I've had no issues with the light.
