Wow these lamps totally change /update the look in my master bedroom. I went from old heavy brass and dark yellow-tan pyramid shade against off-white walls to clean, sleek open lines of chrome, light wood and black tones with rectangular base and crisp white rectangular shades against morning sky blue walls. More and better light spread (I bought new LED 3-way bulbs in white 'daylight') in a room which has never been bright enough, until now.
