I purchased the bronze lamp with beige shade.  The finish of the metal on the lamp stand is uneven between the two pieces you have to screw together.  The marble base was also filled in an area that had chipped, and it the filling does not match the marble well. The shade of the lamp isnt great quality, its flat packed and velcros together with a pretty chunky seam.  It is also hot glued together and there were glue strings all over it.  However, the form of the lamp is nice overall, and it gives off a good light with a standard 60w bulb, just dont look to closely.
