This lamp is very pretty. I am very pleased with it. I feel the price was a bit high though for the size of the lamp.The only bad thing I can say is that the lamp shade is not grey. It is a sandy beige and there was a slight black mark on the shade but it is part of the linen or canvas but not big enough to notice. You will need a smaller light bulb for this lamp otherwise the bulb will show above the shade.
