Overall, this is a solid light fixture. I really like the style and materials. As others have noted, it is missing installation instruction, though I didn't find it too difficult to figure it out. Also (as others have noted as well) the overlap on the shade is very noticeable—which you might want to take into consideration depending on where it will be placed—and the shade and glass don't quite match up, so some of the inside is visible. This bothered me at first, but now that it's been installed for a week or so I don't even notice.
