Absolutely exceeded my expectations!  I went back and forth on whether or not to order this; we have remodeled our entire house & my living room has vaulted ceilings with dark beams.  This was going to replace my (hideous) ceiling fan.  I wanted a statement piece that was large but not cumbersome,  in a "wagon wheel" style but  something that wasn't quite like what everyone else had.  The "flower" (I don't know how else to describe it) pattern of the fixture that is visible from below makes this so unique!  Also, it hangs from a chain (I wasn't too excited about that) but my husband re-engineered the hanging piece and managed to use the rod from our ceiling fan, somehow ran the chain through that and now, there's no visible chain!
