The lampshade is very nice, however, there was no packing around it in the box it was shipped and the courier left it on our front porch (address expressly said "leave on back porch".  The wind somehow grabbed it off the porch which is surrounded by railing and flung it onto our front lawn where it sat getting rained on.  Fortunately we saw it early in the morning and were able to retrieve it.  One corner was all messed up.
