Maxim Lighting Gourd 1 - Light Pendant in Satin Nickel

They are beautiful and exactly what I wanted aesthetically. I took off o e star because both had a lot of flaws in the glass. We thought it was particles from the packing material but once cleaned all the little bubbles are quite clear. Thankfully, they are not noticeable from a distance unless pointed out. I I took off a second star for the overall design. These will need to be cleaned every few days because dust will collect INSIDE them. There is no way to do this without removing the gourds, and the process of removing and replacing them is both tedious and risky. My husband has designed a lid to print from a 3D printer as soon as the clear color arrives. Our fingers are crossed this solution will be undetectable and effective for cutting down the need to uninstall amd clean the interior. As much as I love the way these look, I would not purchase them again because of the maintenance. If you dare, at least save yourself and do not hang them over a kitchen island - you will want them easily accessible for cleaning and in an area where you can create a soft landing. We had them installed by an electrician, and it was very straightforward-the only tricky part is placing the gourd on - there are 3 predrilled holes that the metal bars have to be pulled through and it becomes a rather frustrating balance of how much on each side before you get them all in. It will get easier with the practice you get in cleaning them, provided you do not break them. Good luck...

I never received my order. I called, spent 45 minutes on hold to reorder and still haven’t received it. Did not receive tracking for new reorder either.

The 3 mini pendants over the kitchen island look amazing!
