I really like this lamp, it updates the look of my entrance way and vanity that it sits on. It is light weight and looks more expensive that it was. The lamp shade is a very light creamy white and not a cold white.  To note: I get emails from Wayfair stating that if I review and item then I can enter a contest for a $500 shopping spree.  However, I read the contest rules and I am not eligible to enter the contest because it is only for USA residents, and I live in Canada.
