The chandelier looks exactly like the photo.   I love the elegant look  and smooth finish of the chandelier.  I used  clear LED candlelight style40 watt bulbs which provides plenty of light. I'd recommend using a dimmer to adjust the light.   Several of the candle "tubes" were crooked & had to be gently straightened.  There was an abundance of chain & wire.  I 'm very satisfied with the purchase.
