Heads up, the reviews are right, the Gold is darker than the picture shows. But it my case, it turned out ok. Per my designer-friend's advice, I ditched my clunky chandelier over our main gathering table and went with pendant lighting. I was hesitant throughout the process, until these arrived, my husband installed them (no sweat!), and the lights went on. They're truly gorgeous! It was definitely the right move for my space. The picture doesn't do it justice - the room is much brighter now, promise.
