This is an absolutely beautiful table lamp! It sits perfectly on top of my dresser and goes well with the color scheme in my bedroom. The lamp itself is glass and is a lovely shade of pale green. The Empire Shade is beautifully made and enhances the lamp. The height of this lamp is perfect--not too tall and not too short. I am thrilled with my purchase and have already recommended it to my friends. This is not my first Wayfair purchase and it certainly will not be my last!
