- Is the alabaster real stone?
- Yes. The globe is made of natural alabaster, so each one has its own veining and slight color variation. No two are identical.
- How much light does it give off?
- The alabaster diffuses the bulb into a warm, even glow. It is softer and less bright than a clear glass shade of the same wattage, so it suits ambient light rather than task lighting.
- What bulb does it take?
- It uses a standard screw-base bulb. Check the fixture's maximum wattage before choosing a bulb, and a warm-white LED keeps the diffused look.
- Will the brass finish stay the same color?
- Natural brass is unlacquered, so it darkens and develops a patina with age and handling. Some buyers polish it to keep the bright tone; others let it age.
- Can it go in a bathroom?
- It is a dry-location flush mount, so it suits hallways, bedrooms and living areas. For steamy bathrooms, check the rating with the manufacturer first.
- Does it work on a low ceiling?
- Yes. It mounts flush against the ceiling with a slim canopy, so it stays out of the way where a pendant would hang too low.
