121835 43931 Therese 1493657460 0 69.179.20.7 A I purchased the schoolhouse chain pendent with the 3 stripes in black with matching top and black cloth cord. It is a wonderful addition to our new farmhouse kitchen and is the showcase of the white bead board ceiling with original barn boards from our old barn. It is exactly like pictured online. Customer service is great even when there was a mix up on the cord that was sent in error. Light and fixtures are packed Extremely Well . It is worth the price and even the wait between order and ship time. The large glass shade size fits perfectly for the area which is about 14 ft x 13 ft and supplements all the cabinetry lighting well. 5

73687 43931 Kristin Smith 1415306700 0 165.20.104.35 A This light is perfect for our 1920s farmhouse. I looked everywhere for an antique light, but couldn't find what I wanted. This light gives the exact look I was searching for with all the wonderful modern upgrades in a new light fixture. Will be buying many more lights here!!! 5
