I waited over 3 years to buy this shade, for the lamp you see in the pic (it's a rustic, rusted-patina old car jack!). Because it took us that long to find our log home -- and we feel so blessed! So I am beyond excited -- and relieved -- that it looks SO great. Hubby received it and put it on the lamp, and hadn't taken off the plastic wrapping when he sent me this photo "for approval." J'approve!
