Salton lamp do I love thee? Let me count the ways...
It is gorgeous in my great room. The size, the scale and the texture all make this lamp a winner. I love that the shade is a darker beige, while the base is a creamy off white. The contrast is perfect, and it throws pretty light through that shade. A word of caution, it comes packed in tiny little pieces of Styrofoam, and it gets everywhere. I just went after the little nuggets with painter's tape, and the clean up was not as bad as it could have been.
(I should have opened it in the garage.)
I am VERY happy with this purchase, and recommend it.
