Small scratch on the middle piece but not too noticable. Also, this is advertised as a vanity light but buyer beware - the construction says not to use in moist environments. We are putting it in our bathroom and giving it a try because it simple and beautiful with the shades on. I will say if you want clear shades, be prepared to buy more expensive bulbs. Otherwise the clouded shades can be used with any bulbs. 3 LED lights was perfectly enough to light up our 40sq ft bathroom. The wires are all the same color but they are labeled with N G and H so do not take those off when being installed!
