When I first looked at this chandelier I thought it would be too big for our space, but once it was hung, it looked perfect! The crystals give a nice bling to our dining room. Note that when the chandelier is first hung it migh look crooked or slanted, but once the crystals are hung, ithe weight of them balances out the fixture. Lovely- we're very happy with this purchase and we're now looking for the complimenting flush hung smaller fixture for our foyer.
