This lamp is beautiful. I got the silver with white shade. The bottom is a heavy marble so keep it upright. The shade feels high quality. It was fairly easy to put together. I took off 1 star for 2 reasons. 1) The switch is on the cord, on the floor. Given the design, I'm putting it behind my sectional and not sure how I'm going to turn it on and off easily. And 2) The shade doesn't hang parallel to the floor like in the picture. It's slightly diagonal pointing to the middle of the room. It still looks good, but if you want it pointing straight down, this isn't quite right.
