Beautiful fixture. I agree with others though that the directions are way less then what's needed. I had put fixtures together before thankfully. Also comments about how hard it is to put the diffuser on made me think of a better way. I took the flat piece of cardboard that came in the box and put the diffuser and the ring on top of that piece of cardboard. Then I just held it up underneath the fixture with one hand and screwed it on with the other hand  That part only took me about a minute to do. Overall am very happy with it, it's a great look in my dining room. I tried to load a picture but it won't do it.
