What kind of bulbs does it take?

It uses three standard-base bulbs, so LED or incandescent both fit. Choose dimmable bulbs if you want to dim it, and check the fixture's maximum wattage before buying.

Can it be hung on a sloped ceiling?

Only if the canopy and chain or rod allow it. Many tiered drum pendants are designed for flat ceilings, so confirm the mounting type before you commit to a vaulted room.

How high should I hang it over a table?

A common rule is about 30 to 36 inches from the bottom of the fixture to the tabletop. Over an island, keep it high enough that people can see across the counter.

Is the glass clear or frosted?

The glass is textured rather than plain clear, which softens the light and hides bulb glare. That texture is also why it shows dust, so plan on wiping it down.

Does it suit a small room?

A three-tier drum is fairly wide, so it can overpower a small bedroom or narrow hallway. It works best over a table or island with open space around it.
