My husband and I are very pleased with the color, shape and "look" of our three pendants hanging in a row over our kitchen island. One thing that has us befuddled--there was no component to hold the glass shade in place (centered) except a three sided silver-colored piece of metal that went up inside the shade on the cable. At the top of the shade where the cable comes out, the shade has to be centered, as there is no "cap" that holds it in place on the cable. Perhaps the design could be tweaked a bit to include a cap that sits atop the shade to hold it in place.

This light is beautiful. I have three of them hanging above my kitchen island. The brown swirl of colors fits nicely with the hickory hardwood floors. The only downfall is the level of difficulty one must go through to get the glass shade off for cleaning - nearly the entire light must be disassembled.

The pendant light is well worth the excellent price. I bought 2 and they look beautiful in my kitchen. The directions that come with them are rather simple, however, you have to figure some of it out yourself, meaning the inside pieces. It took a couple of times and you cannot do this till the pendant is in place. Otherwise the pendant is a really pretty light.
