Very pleased and just what I needed.  Quite a statement item.  Excellent quality (came very well packaged) added to which they were on sale when I bought them - I would have been just as pleased if at full price.  Exactly as picture (colour of base and shade true to picture) and description.   Bought for master bedroom - they have a very classy expensive look and I love the shimmer/shine of the base when the light (from outside and when lit) hits them.   The see through nature is very attractive.
