Lamp has mid-century vibe. Bottom ceramic a gloss white.  Shade is white and in balance; fully covers lamp's harp, which is excellent.  Wood is a birch or light maple and works well with our natural wicker on sun porch.  Long cord and three-way switch, along with white finial make a perfect lamp.  Size provides reading light when placed on average height end table.  Well packed; no damage.  Great price.  Saw for $175.00 in magazine; purchased two.
