This fan is beautiful and was very easy to replace a previous fan/light with.  The picture is very true to exact product.  The light is gives off is a nice soft glow - but bright enough to light up the room.  When opening the box I found the fan blades had alternate sides.  You can turn them to a lighter wood or the darker wood as pictured.  This may have been in description - but I had not noticed.
Great choice - extremely quiet fan - well balanced and beautiful.
