Honestly, when they first arrived, the box was so light, I thought I was going to open the box to find it to be plastic...lol  I was pleasantly surprised!  It's metal!  It is just light, which is awesome for hanging on the walls!  The bulbs I bought weren't like the one in pic here...I chose to use an LED light bulb.  Anyway, I just love them!  I bought two for my master bath!  My package was delivered quickly and I was notified of it every step of the way!   Thanks Wayfair!
