I used this lamp for an iron pipe industrial light and it fits perfectly with the style I wanted! It emits a pleasant, medium to low light with a warm, pleasant tone. It's bright enough for a table lamp, but maybe not the best for reading as the sole light source. However, it can absolutely add style to a room! After a few months of using this bulb it is still working and I expect it will last for some time to come. My only complaint was how the heck I actually ordered it back in the Edison days! Since I see similar lamps with free and faster shipping, I would not recommend this lamp. However if you are just curious and in no hurry to buy something like this and want good quality then in my experience this is hard to beat than buying a single bulb.
