Well, these lamps are a good size for our night tables which are on the smaller side.  I think these must be handmade as both of them sit a little lop sided.  I was sent a replacement, which is better but again not perfect.  Also, I don't understand why a white shade would be put on this earthy lamp.  I will replace them when I find the right size.  These started out at $175.00 and as I watched them over the course of a couple of weeks they changed price about four times.    I was told that this is due to the manufacturer changing their price to them...I find this hard to believe.  Anyway, bought them on a day that they were $85.00 and even that is high for this quality of lamp.  These will do for what we need them for but buyer beware....check the prices before you buy.
