the base is nice and for the record Ive never left a bad review but the shade is JUNK! I'm an interior designer and have ordered hundreds if not thousands of lighting over the years many of it frim Wayfair but this embarrassed me.. The shade is NOT metal or even fabric, its a plastic that you velcro onto the lamp. The lamp is not thousands but its not cheap either so frankly both my client and myself are disappointed. We are both wayfair lovers so this killed the buzz
