Aldred 12-Light Matte Brass Branch Chandelier, Bulbs Included

The light comes in well packaged and ready for installation, it comes with its own hardware and also the light bulbs are included for a complete look. You may install it right by the ceiling or lowered with one or all rods that are included in the kit, so it is up to you the height. Do not forget to install the brass ring since I forgot the first time. The matte brass finish looks elegant, cool and nice. The design overall looks awesome once installed, you may move the branches to your desired look, the bulbs give a warm white light that is very bright with full power, you can dim the chandelier for an accent light as well.

Easier to install than the average chandelier. This Globe Electric Aldfred 12 light chandelier helped convert our space into a modern feeling very quickly. The finish is a quality matte brass, almost gold looking. Ample light is emitted from the supplied bulbs. The included bulbs are incandescent, wish they were LED. Super flexible light with the different down rod sizing (Up to 60 inches).

An absolutely stunning chandelier, It is so modern and easy to put up, except for the sloped ceiling. I had to maneuver the base on the ceiling because the joint and the set screws were at a 90 degree angle. The set screws were also to short because on my house the box on the ceiling is recessed. So after a couple of adjustments it lined up and went in. Now that it is up, it looks and works great. These small 120 volt bulbs give off an amazing amount of brightness. This chandelier not only brightens the room, it adds some elegance. One bulb's filament was dislodged, but it was bright anyway. And the little cap that was on the bottom of the box was not put on, but that is totally not noticeable. (see pics below)

This review is for Aldred 12 Light Branch Chandelier. This light is fabricated in a brass color metal tubes with 12 lights on 3 arms that stick out perpendicular to the main vertical down tube. The horizontal tubes are movable to create whatever style you want. At maximum length, this light is 60 inches long, but 4 nine inch tubes can be removed to make it shorter for specific mounting applications. At it widest point, it's 31 inches. There are no shades covering the 60 watt incandescent Candelabra bulbs that are provided with this light. It's nice that this light is dimmable however, it does not come with a dimmer switch (sold separately) because with no shades on full, it can get bright to the eye. On full bright, this light will burn 720 watts! Personally, I would replace these incandescent bulbs with 60 watt dimmable LED bulbs that burn just 4.5 watts for a total light wattage usage of just 54 watts on high. A compatible LED dimmer would be required. The upgrade to 12 Candelabra dimmable LED's with dimmer could cost around +/- $40.00. If you would use it a lot, this upgrade makes sense. If you don't mind the higher wattage use, the bulbs provided with the light would work great, if on a dimmer, which for a low end model, for incandescent bulbs is around $15.00. We mounted this light in our master bathroom over a tub. Wife love's it there and it really matches the accents in that space. Wife loves the factory bulbs. It is a simplistic modern design that I think most people will really like, or maybe not so much. It's all up to individual tastes in decor.

Very pretty for our stair case but it’s light gold.

Very brass finish, but lovely and easy install. Bulbs included, however they are very thin, so handle with care!

Product is decent enough for the price point. However, it is not a true brass but more of a painted finish. Fixture had a slight defect in the finish but would have been relatively unnoticeable once hung. If the "look" takes priority over quality then a great buy (but I returned the item).
