I really like the quality of the materials- the base is very solid and the brass looks very high quality. The lamp was very easy to put together. I only gave it 4 stars because the arch of the top isn't as flexible as I hoped. It doesn't stay in a variety of angles. Also, the light bulb is very peculiar and I don't think I will ever find a replacement for it when it burns out, although the instruction sheet for assembly has an order form for replacement bulbs. The light bulb has three settings, but they are all very bright.

Somewhat disappointed as the light doesn't stay up straight- not a heavy enough weight in the base

Lamp could have a longer flex arm.

It is very classic looking and has a heavy base.

Great!
