The lamp serves the purpose well for which it was purchased. It really brightens a dark room. There should be a note to install the lampshade upside down. Typically, you would put the lampshade on with the inner cross-pieces on the upper side of the shade. If you do that on this one, the light bulb sticks out above the shade. If you turn it upside down, it sits perfectly.

It’s perfect next to my couch. Nice lighting.

Shade arrived damaged because it was glued to the box! Lamp also damaged. Piece necessary to screw the two lengths of poles together was missing. Am told that they are re-sending another. We'll see. A $600 lamp arriving in two boxes, BOTH boxes containing damaged goods. Amazing

Beautiful lamp! Solid add has designer look.

My only complaint is that I wish it came with two sockets. Good design other wise.
