Are the crystals real or they are glasses? Is this a Maria Theresa product?

I think they are glass except for the ball crystal in the center! That one is crystal! It's a beautiful chandelier though! I get many compliments!

Sorry for the late response yes, real glass and lamp is beautiful. you cannot tell from the picture because its lit up but some of the lighter leaves are light blue.

They certainly look and feel real to me. They are more of a flat transparent stone than a crystal. Good variations in color.

I believe so they are glass not crystal... made in USA and didn't notice a warning. They are very nice glasses

Its crystal, which is like glass and definitely not plastic. If any of the numerous crystals look blemished (there are a lot of pieces to put together) just call the company and let them know. I did and they immediately shipped out replacements for me free of charge and even included a few extras. They were great!

I am not sure, i think crystals are not real, but they look good. I mean, you can see in some cases colors thru them and realy nice shadows and paterns in walls

Hi,They are glass, but, very, very basic. I purchased them for a casual party and I am now inclined to just give them away or toss them out. They are not special. I differ in the previous person's assessment of the glasses. Of course, I love Baccarat crystal glasses so I am probably being on fair in comparing apples to oranges. So you may want to consider your needs. For a simple casual party, they were nicer than plastic BUT not too much better than that.

I compared them with "Baggies" - no they are not crystal. Hope this helps you.

Cathy, The crystals are plastic. Looks great for the price. It would have been a whole lot more if they were real crystal. We are in process of installing it over the soaking tub in the master bedroom suite addition.

I would agree that these are nice glasses and pretty thin. I don't think I'd say they are fine crystal.

The crystals are clear glass and quite good quality. The metal parts of the chandelier are somewhat thin, but you can't tell that once it's installed. I would purchase this item again. It looks very good for the price.

Yes, it is real crystal, with a very pleasant "ring" I use these every day and get lots of compliments. Are they expensive cut crystal like Waterford no; but they are good quality crystal that looks beautiful. I also have the taller, 12 oz glasses, that I use for iced tea and water. These, I use mainly for juice and for cocktails when we're serving lots of guests.Some with parse the meaning of "crystal" and insist that "real" crystal must contain lead. That's not the definition: a piece of a homogeneous solid substance having a natural geometrically regular form with symmetrically arranged plane faces, or, highly transparent glass with a high refractive index. In other words, all crystal is simply "pretty glass."' Yes, it is real crystal, with a very pleasant "ring" I use these every day and get lots of compliments.

I assume it's non leaded crystal, like the rest of it. It is really a beautiful piece. Understated, had a great weight, and fits the hand perfectly. I love mine.

It is real glass. As a matter of fact, a friend of mine bought one also but her glass was shattered when delivered. However, Amazon or the supplier promptly replaced it and all is fine. Also, in case you were wondering,the bottom drawer holds large watches very well as I have a lot of watches with large faces and it is actually a good looking storage piece.

The Crystal is not smaller than the picture. The Crystal is very beautiful. The rope part of the necklace is actually made of a fabric but it has a chain at the top like in the picture. On the chain of the necklace theres a circular hook so you can put it around your neck. The Crystal is actually made of plastic. Don't freak out because you still have that crystallized look in the gem. The plastic of the gym is very heavy duty and I can assure you that it won't break.
