These are gorgeous! I’ll post pics after they’re installed, but they arrived in one piece. The sheen on the globe is a soft metallic champagne, adding just a slight golden touch when the light is off. I’m not certain of the lighted glow, yet, as they aren’t yet installed. It is black chicken-wire that gives the texture on the outside. Very substantial in size—be sure to check that that works in your application. Love these!
