I am very satisfied with the style and good quality of this lamp. It's beautiful and looks like it came from a high-end store. It wasn't difficult to assemble once you actually get everything out of  the boxes! Those boxes were packed very very securely, so if you have someone who can help you with unpacking , go ahead and ask them before trying it yourself. The base is a very heavy slab of marble to keep the lamp steady. Really beautiful piece . Happy with the look and quality
