The lamp is beautiful and well made. Looks exactly like the photos and I add a note that since the glass globes appear to be hand blown each one is a bit different. I like that artisan look. I also like that it takes a 3-way bulb so you can have different light levels. The one criticism I do have is that the lamp base is so light and the shade so wide, that the lamp tips over easily if the table it is on, or the lamp itself is bumped. It does not take much for the lamp to fall over. I am having my husband add a weight to the base so the lamps are more stable.
