This floor lamp was exactly what I'd been searching for to complement the beach ocean oiled bronze decor of our reception area.  It stands perfectly in a corner that needed brightening up and to make the space feel high end and give it a finished look.  What an incredible value for such a gorgeous statement piece...really almost sculptural.  It is sturdy, stable,  and easy to turn on & off with the push button floor switch that you simply touch with your toe.
