- Can the arms really be repositioned?
- Yes. The natural brass arms rotate, so you can fan the six shades around a round table or swing them into a line over an island. Set the layout before the fixture is hung, since adjusting it overhead is awkward.
- What bulbs does it take?
- It uses six standard-base bulbs, and they are typically sold separately. Because the linen shades diffuse light, medium-wattage bulbs give a soft glow rather than bright task lighting.
- Will it fit over a round dining table?
- The rotating arms let you spread the shades to cover a round or oval table. Check the fixture's diameter against your table width so the shades sit inside the table edge.
- Is the linen shade hard to keep clean?
- Fabric shades hold dust, so vacuum them gently with a brush attachment now and then. Unlike glass, they cannot be wiped down, and stains are difficult to remove.
- Does the brass finish stay bright?
- Natural brass darkens and patinas with age and humidity. Some owners like the aged look; if you want it bright, plan on occasional polishing.
- Is it dimmable?
- Dimmability depends on the bulbs and the wall switch, not the fixture itself. Use dimmable bulbs with a compatible dimmer for lower evening light.
