Just as pictured...work with my elevated industrial styled space. They have complete height flexibility...could even be a desk lamp if you choose as the pole is in three sections. The only thing that I think would improve it is if there were a way to control the cord so it hangs straight...maybe a loop or weight at the base?

Love it! Perfect lamp for reading. I have it next to my reclining chair for reading. I love it!

Perfect for our bedroom. It’d work in a traditional, modern, industrial, or even craftsman styled space. Exposed cord doesn’t bother us at all. Beautiful glow but would be excellent office small space task lighting. Very versatile.
