Very nice light for my daughter's room and certainly elevates the space.  While it comes well packaged, some of the feathers were crushed on the sides and required fluffing.  Where it pressed against each side of the box on two sides - those feathers were permanently flat - but it wasn't that noticeable once hung.  I would buy again for her room as it looks very nice and has a nice soft light - but if it were meant for a highly visible area where I'd see it all the time - I would likely choose something else simply because of the flattening when shipped.  The downside is that there isn't a particularly easy way to clean it.
