Very elegant and classic lamps. They are a nice size if you have a small bedside table. They were the perfect size for our dresser as well. They were packaged very nicely and compactly. I saw that some other reviewers had issues with wrinkles on the shades, but I had no creases or wrinkles. They look GORGEOUS with some 60 watt soft white LED bulbs. Completely changed the look of our bedroom! The reason I took off a star is because the the switch is on the wire itself. This makes the wire difficult to hide due to extra bulk and the need to take it out to it turn on or off. It also makes turning it on or off inconvenient and I wish the switch was on the lamp itself. But, for the price, these are great lamps.
