We have 2 sconces with two lights on the sides of the mantel of our 1907 home so we wanted more ambience and looks, not true brightness. Unfortunately, these lamps don't last long. We have received less than 2 months for each bulb and many if not all of the new amber LED bulbs are too bright and with thin glass. These are the only ones that have speckled/textured glass. Due to the high price and VERY short lifespan, we probably won't be buying them again.
