Got it today. Installed it. BEAUTIFUL! I ordered the chandelier a couple of days and it arrived promptly. First I was a bit afraid when I saw the size of the drum. I thought it would be way to big for the space. I installed the light myself. It is not that  difficult. The light fixture is substantial. It has some weight to it. The drum has a soft, linen like beige color. I am very happy with the purchase.  (Picture still has the plastic cover on).
