No directions, if they consider this one page that was inside directions, I don't know what to say. This is not a good product to buy. First the bracket is not a universal bracket, soo I had to buy a bracket and a lamp nipple to put the product flush to the ceiling. I'm fortunate to be very handy, but this was still frustrating. Lastly the crystal accents had to be figured out as to how they are to be hung on the fixture. I went through all this trouble because I didn't feel like returning it.
