Very well made and true to color, both lamp and shade.  Off white was the shade color although it's pretty "white" which is what we wanted.  The shade texture is a bit "checkered" up close and shows a bit (i.e. open weave). I'd rather it had been a slightly tight weave, but it will suffice.  One lamp had a very minor scratch at the base on it, but is hard to see, small, and not worth a return in my book.  Overall a good deal for the price/pair.  One odd issue is the 3-way brightness control works medium-bright-low, in that order.   Seems it would be low-med-bright as all other 3 ways I ever used are.
