I love how it looks! I love the orange glow! It definitely puts me in the Halloween mood. When this glass globe arrived it was in 2 parts, the globe and the light base. I could see that the light part had been glued in but it came loose. So instead of coming as a 1 piece unit it was 2 pieces. It works just the same for me and I still love it. It uses AA batteries and they last a while. I am very happy with it.
