This light fixture had 5 glass panes. The fixture was not packaged correctly. It was just sitting in a box and the glass panes were loose. The box was not well sealed and had tears in the side. When I picked it up it just sounded like broken glass as the panes shifted around. I had to assemble this fixture which had no instructions. Fortunately the panes were chipped on the edges but not broken so I was able to make it work without a return. It was the poorest example of packaging I've ever seen.
