We put 2 of these in our living room,one on each side of our fireplace.They look awsome,and we get lots of complements on them.they are very fragile,& lite. They give very poor light with only 3 small 40 watt globes with in each. I replaced the globes with 13 watt mini clf's they are equivelant to 60 watt incandesent bulbs. This made a huge difference in the amount of light they put out,and the clf's are much more energy efficent.
