I love the look of this light and I am very happy with the purchase.  It's definitely a 2 person job to put up but that is because it is really well made, the glass is solid and although delicate to install, very solid once it is in place.  The only negative is that there is a seam created in the outer opaque shell/ shade where the fabric meets.  It is ~1.5cm in width and runs the height of the shade.  It is straight and neat, and the shell can be turned to face any direction but in a small room with a picture window that is easy to see into, there isn't a great place to hide it.  Other than that, it's a beauty and I am am happy for the addition.
