Substantial pendant light with lots of drama. Very pleased with my purchase. The glass is not a solid color, but a bit of a subtle swirl of white that doesn't come across in the photo's. There are a few flaws in the glass so pinpricks of brighter light show through here and there, almost like imperfections. Just be prepared for it. If perfection is your thing, it may not be for you, but if you like the idea of it looking a bit more like specialty glass and embrace the uniqueness, you will like it.
