Once assembled and lit, the result is stunning. Both the construction of the frame and the quality of the base are absolutely flawless.
The chandelier comes with a very long hanging rope, which can be adjusted at each end. We arranged it in a diagonal cascading pattern. Even during the day, when the lights are off, it hangs there like a modern sculpture, a feast for the eyes.
We have a long, windowless hallway leading to our bedrooms that used to feel quite dark and dreary. We installed these vertical wall sconces at intervals along the wall. At night, the way the light permeates the translucent stone is stunning. Even without electricity during the day, it is still a three-dimensional wall sculpture.
I hung these above a small, round dining table in the corner. When I turn on the light to drink coffee in the early morning, the warm yellow glow is very relaxing. The stone itself is not thin, but its light transmission is just right, giving it both a sense of weight and a light and transparent feel.
Installation went perfectly. The craftsmanship is impeccable. the fixtures hang perfectly straight, with no wobbling or tilting whatsoever.
