This was a splurge for me, but worth every penny! This chandelier is beautiful, unique and everyone who comes to the house comments on how gorgeous it is.  It's substantial, but no heavy or overwhelming. Again, one of those that looks exactly like it does in the pictures. Excuse my cat in the centerpiece bowl. I was changing my table landscape and he got in the bowl. I couldn't help but laugh. He's  not allowed on the table!
