The lamp is the perfect "look" for our new condo after transitioning from a traditional Tudor home. I love the sleek lines yet the roundness of it give it some softness. It is a substantial weight thus not "flimsy". The only reason I didn't give it a five star was that the shade arrived damaged. Working through the website, however, was easy and a replacement was sent. I've ordered several items from Wayfair and all have been as stated online.
