While the product looks like a suitable substitute for more expensive pendant lamps, you will find this is a typical case of getting what you pay for.
The glass shades have three holes for attachment by screws to the hanging light holder. The holes in these shades are hand drilled, and of the three I just ordered two have one hole each that is not in line with the others on the shade, resulting the the shade not hanging level.
The ceiling fixture does not have any provision for a sloping ceiling. If you hang these lamps on a non-flat ceiling, the cord to the pendant then comes out of the fixture at an odd angle, and looks unattractive.
The cord itself only comes in black, so if you need any other color (white, for example) to compliment you room, you will have to buy it somewhere else and replace it on your own.

I purchased this light fixture to compliment my Peroni Full Sized Pendant by Demajo Murano of Italy. I believe this fixture to be the compliment to the Peroni, as I seem to recall Damajo's products as being distributed in the US by the manufacturer Lite Source (see www.demajomurano.com). But I am not certain. But if so, order through Lighting Universe as you won't find it cheaper anywhere else and they don't sell direct. Anyway, I like this mini pendant, and I think you get a lot of bang for your buck. To address some of the concerns indicated by the previous post: the cord is black, but then most modern kitchens are going back to black appliances again (as is customary every few years as trends change to move away from white and then back to it a few years later). The cord they give you is like 20+ feet (whoa!), but it is adjustable and can be cut. The holes in the fixture I got were evenly drilled, but then again I asked them to check this before shipping. The quality of the shade is excellent, as the glass is blown in solid layers as opposed to just being sandblasted or coated with some cheap etching glaze. This particular pendant is not meant to hang on a slanted ceiling, as one would guess by the type of mount provided (c'mon for $40 get real). The service I got from Lighting Universe was prompt, and I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again in the future. If I could change one thing about this light: just for decorative purposes and to compliment other pendants by the same manufacturer, it would have been nice if they would have also run a suspension cable alongside the black cord, just for an added contemporary bit of flair, even if they had to jack up the price a few extra bills. All in all, I think it's a good product! Good luck!

The quality is not very good. We are having issue with another item - LS 1919 BLK which looks ugly.

Ppackage came in great condition. Lights were as good as expected.
