As soon as I saw these I knew I'd be keeping them.  They arrived packed very well, no chance of them being damaged due to materials used to pack.  The lamps really are gorgeous, the shade is a taupe colour with a slight sheen to the material, the base colour is bronze and the dimples really are eye catching, plenty of light is given using the suggested bulb, I bought the E27 LED bulbs, the in-line switch is so much handier than fumbling around under the shade to switch on and off.  Cord is of a reasonable length too.
I purchased these for my living room and they look beautiful, I would recommend this item to anyone looking for something classy and they are worth every penny.
