Finding a lamp that looks good and isn't exorbitantly expensive is hard. I am glad I bought this one. It looks great in real life, just like the pictures if not better. 
It comes packaged in crumbly styrofoam so some cleanup is required after assembly. My unit came slightly damaged, the ceramic around one of the bulb sockets was shattered and there was a small scratch on the pedestal. Not enough to make it worth returning but enough to make me consider whether to buy a second one of these.
