Got two of these for over my bar in the kitchen. They are very flexible and, as I had hoped, the light shines between the holes and makes for a pretty accent. They hang off flexible cable, very long so it has great length variability.
They were a bit larger than I expected ... but it turns out that is good in my case.
They came with a light diffuser on the bottom and lots of washers. The diffuser is great because i hung them much higher than I thought I was going to. Also, since they take standard bulbs I put the long lifes in them... making them maintenance free.
The color is rich.. just as I'd hoped
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
