I am in love with this light.  It's beautiful!  Installation was a bit of a bear.  Attaching the glass lamp shades takes a bit of patience...as does adjusting all six wires.  We shortened all the wires by just about 6 inches.  It made for a lot of wire to cram up behind the fixture on the ceiling.  If you need to take in any more than that....you're going to have a very hard time hiding all the wire behind the ceiling piece.  Cutting the wires would be possible, but then you'll have to rewire all the connections.  You'll want this on a dimmer.  If you install the suggested bulbs it is BRIGHT!  Too bright.  I doubt we'll ever turn the dimmer up more than half.
