I love this chandelier.  I looked at chandeliers for months before deciding on this one. I kept the chain very short since my ceilings are not vaulted. It makes a beautiful pattern on the ceiling and makes my entry way feel elegant and classically beautiful. It does take a little bit of time to hang the crystals, but worth it. Just be patient and if possible wear white gloves to minimize finger prints. I actually wore an apron with pockets and was very careful not to drop them. There were a couple extras of the two smaller crystals, but the larger pieces I was given the exact number required, so please be careful.
