The fixture came before the estimated shipping date! I was very pleased about that! It was installed by an electrician as part of our guest bathroom remodel. He showed us the option of positioning the boxes at the diagonal as well as square as shown in all the photos, and we loved the way they look in a diamond pattern. They throw off more light and make interesting starburst patterns on the wall behind. The fixture is very rich looking and we have received compliments from virtually everyone who uses the bathroom. I know it took the electrician a bit of time to install, so I was glad we didn't have to do it. We also are dreading changing the lightbulbs, which doesn't look to be an easy task. However, the fixture is very pretty and adds a bit of glitz without being ornate. We are extremely satisfied.
