These lamps are gorgeous! Mine arrived very well packed and protected from damage and were, therefore, without any dings, dents, chips, or fingerprints. They were very easy to assemble as well. I appreciate the clear cord and that they have a nice heft to them. They positively sparkle in my bedroom and cast just enough ambient light to read by. I love them and would purchase them again without hesitation. Wayfair had just what I needed.
