Due to the design of the bowl shape, it is impossible to install light bulbs. Any size of light bulbs. The lighting insert is too close to the glass bowl. So sad, it's a beautiful light.

Disappointed
The pendant light appears to be of a good quality... however
First, the instructions, what few are there, will leave the assembler/installer frustrated to the point where you throw the instructions away and wing it on your own. They just plain are terrible and don't work if you want your light assembled/installed in under 4-6 hours, even than they're doubtful.
Second, do NOT follow the recommendation here on the Home Depot website on the lamps to use. There is NO 'A' type lamp (not even an A19) that will allow the glass shade to be installed. They are just plain too big! It appears it will require a 'B' type lamp (sort of a candle flame shaped) in order for the glass shade to clear the lamps and be hooked to the hangers.
Third, the bolt holes where the ball-capped bolts go into to hold the frosted glass in place are powder coated down into the thread holes. Be prepared to ream or clean out the coating or the ball-capped bolts will not seat the way they should.
