I purchased two of these lamps and I have to tell you that are spectacular!  Just absolutely stunning!  The pictures don't do them justice at all.  The only concern I had with the lamps is that one of the halogen bulbs that it came with went out as soon as I put it in.  I have searched high and low for the same bulb and can't find them anywhere.  The feature description says I can just use a 40W candelabra bulb, so that's what I'm going to try.  It didn't sound to me like it had to be halogen or be exactly what came with the lamp.  If this doesn't work then I'm going to try to get ahold of the manufacturer in Italy.
