This is manufactured by, and matches, the same company as the Bailey lighting group fixtures that look similar to this. The gold portion of the lamp is a lightweight mesh (that's the best decription I can think of at this time). So, where the mesh meets, instead  of having a seam, there is an overlap that is visible and about 1/2 inch. I was able to turn the seam towards a wall where it's less visible. But, it is slightly annoying. However, the slight annoyance of this overlapping seam is well worth having an entry light (from my garage) match three other lights from the same family but totally different designs and in different areas of the house with different functionalities. I really love the fact that they are obviously from the same family but styled differently. The overlapping seam is the reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. A seam would have been preferable to an overlap and this price point is certainly worthy of that little extra TLC.
