Beautiful light, however, the photo does not accurately depict the colors of the gold and the dark.  The gold is a soft matte finish, more antiqued than bold.  The darker black looking color is more of an oil rubbed bronze, dark brown color.  Overall they still look very nice and have many adjustable poles to work with depending upon your ceiling height.  We had one screw cover missing, but found it in the bag and were able to glue it on to cover the screw.  Otherwise, I would have been upset with the missing/broken piece.  Overall a nice light.
