After looking at eons of lamps on different sites and at brick and mortar stores I decided on a pair of these lamps.  They are exactly as pictured, which works perfectly in terms of size, color and shape for my great room.  Then why only 4 stars?  For the price, and they were near the top of the price point I was looking at, I felt the workmanship is a little rough, particularly the finish is not consistently smooth.  Also not featuring a 3-way switch seems odd.  The top finial is a typical brass cheap looking knob which I plan to replace.  I just think for the price, they fell a bit short.
