The coloured glass shades are vivid and vibrant, exactly what I was looking for. The chrome mounting plate is quite large and you need to wear gloves when installing to avoid fingerprints. The cables are all connected together, with spare crimps should you need them - other similar lights needed more wiring than this one. After 10 minutes of untangling, it’s easy to set each cable to the required length - I went for a spiral, but you can set your own lengths. The light arrived in 3 parcels. The base and bulbs in one box, 6 shades in another and 8 in the third. 2 boxes arrived after about 2 weeks, the third a week later. Tracking was provided for each and customer service was great. They emailed the check the colours required, to update on shipping, and to check everything was ok. Overall extremely happy with the light, the colours
