Pleasantly surprised by this chandelier! It looks terrible when you first open it and take it out but it’s beauty comes together when you add all the crystals. This thing takes patience to put together, there are 5 types of crystals and they all need to be hooked on by hand. We put the crystals on before we put the light in place to make this step easier. It took me about 1.5 hrs just to complete the crystals. Although this was a headache, this chandelier was well worth all the work. People stop to admire it from the sidewalk! It catches the daylight sun and glimmers in candlelight. It’s vibrant and sparkly. I love it against our brick wall. It’s a real beauty.
