Wow are my first words.  It might not be glass but it sure the hell looks like it from the first look. Absolutely exquisite is all I can say about this floor lamp. It's 84 in high which just clears my sunroom ceiling. But the amount of light that I am receiving from this floor lamp is more than I imagined. The size is perfect for the size of my room and I think that I got a Wayfair deal.. Plus delivery was on date, and assembly was easy with a little help from a friend.
