This light is so beautiful. Very elegant looking and the dimmer just makes it all worth buying it! The description does not mention a dimmer, but it's there. It comes with 4 bulbs and 4 globes. We turned the globes around so it is all frosted, (as another reveiwer suggested) and like that look much better. We also bought the table lamp version of this light (after seeing this one) to go on the other side of the room for accent. So sleek and modern in our "basically" traditional room. I love the mix of both. My husband put it together with pretty much no problems ( until I walked in and wanted the angles different), but they do move around, so just delicately play around and I'm sure you'll get it the way you want. The way you can either light up the room, or just dim it to look like candle light is the most greatest opion. Buy it!!!
