This is a statement piece!  I purchased 2 for my living room, and they make the room look beautiful and sophisticated.  I love the texture on the lampshades; it looks much higher quality than the usual boring plain shades.  There are some small imperfections in the glass of the base, but they are barely noticeable.  Make sure you measure before purchasing: these are large lamps and shades!

Pros: great value, high quality, sturdy
Cons: imperfections in the glass
