This lamp is exactly as pictured in the description which was a relief and I love it ! I recently decided my bedroom needed a facelift. I spent a great deal of time on other sites, and just couldn't find what I was looking for - a classy, coastal look.  I then began reviewing Wayfair's site (I brewed a pot of coffee and propped my feet up) and I was so absorbed in the choices! I would highly recommend this item to anyone considering purchasing it.
