So beautiful. I spent months searching for the 'right' lamps. I have never been a 'lamp type'. Our new home/ bedroom retreat is really coming together and the lamps add such a warmth. They are a bit rustic in appearance but not so much you can't combine them with the modern clean lines of our black end tables and slat bed. The shades provide ambience. They are much sturdier than the photo shows and great quality construction. Our packaging was an issue and the boxes were not in good shape at all but the lamps seem to be fine. But Wayfair stood behind this issue and responded immediately with a resolution that made sense to me. I would highly recommend buying these lamps. For any room!
