This is a great lamp! It comes with a remote to easily change the type of lighting and brightness. It’s slender and will easily fit anywhere you could possibly need some extra light. I LOVE that I can just turn it on and off just using the remote! The shade at the top is a heavy plastic, which appears like a frosted glass. The black pole base just screws together easily. 

Sometimes these types of lamps end up being cheaply made….NOT this one!! It’s extremely sturdy! I highly recommend it!!
