I wish I could give this lamp more stars, but something about it just isnt right. it arrived quickly, within 4 days of purchase. The lamp is much smaller than it looks and meets the described height only with the shade on. The lamp base is also rather thin making the shade look awkward and wrong fitting. A slimmer shade would probably give the lamp a better look. It is not ugly by any means, but its far from being great or even aesthetically pleasing. I think you could find a better lamp! Need to note, Wayfair is at no fault, they shipped quickly and item fit description, sorta, just looks better in the picture.
