Hello! This is a really stylish pendant light and could look great in a living room but please bear in mind the type of light you will get from it. Firstly, it will cast a pool of light straight down which, on its own, is neither flattering to the room nor the people in it. Accompanied with accent lighting such as wall lights or lamps, it could work. Secondly, unlike your cotton shade, the bulb will be more exposed and therefore not ideal if above a sitting area. Try a pearlised or decorative bulb at a lower wattage to avoid glare. Hope this helps Jennifer

In a previous hone I bought these Dar Zaragoza lights and used them as bedside lights hung at chest height. I also needed a diffuser for the top, was concerned about the weight so discounted glass and had a disc of Perspex cut and it was just the job

Love this!! Feels so warm
