This lamp is beautiful!  I got the teal color and combined with the linen colored shade, it's beachy and perfect.  The only drawback was the socket didn't sit flush when I put the lamp together.  This caused the shade/bulb to lean slightly.  I remedied this by adding some clear super glue  where the socket meets the base.  Let it sit overnight and it's been perfect ever since.  The price is great and it really complements my room.
