Hi Linda, this dining room is amazing. I love everything about it. We just built a house and I copied everything, item for item. I ordered the chandelier in dark bronze with the cream candles. We just moved in to our new home from out of state and the candles look very amber to me and even more so when they are turned on. Sadly, it does not work with gray beige tones of the RH chairs. We called the people we selected the lighting from and they are telling us it is the cream. Frankly, I don't think they are correct. Were your cream candles amber looking? Did you experience this? I really appreciate your thoughts. Thank you so much!
