I wanted a pretty, funky chandelier for my master closet & this was perfect. I got it in purple & it looks expensive & always gets attention. It is NOT glass but looks like it is. It has lots of sparkle! My teenage granddaughters love. It gives off plenty of light in the closet. I think everybody is a little shocked when they see it in MY closet because of my age. I have 10 grandchildren! All I'm going to say about age!
