These have grown on me. I’m still annoyed that one of the shades (I purchased 2) had shredded weaving (it’s glued on to the background so cannot be altered), but through a bit of creative placement I’ve been able to hide ‘that’ part. Wish I’d bought “full power” 60W bulbs because I’ve needed to add another lamp to the space to compensate. I do like the “cool” light they give off though.
