This is a very pretty lamp.   The glass shade is well made and the base in heavy.  Other than that, it is a failure.  Very poorly made as far as the pole and top piece that holds the glass shade.  I received the first lamp and the poles were assembled backwards by the factory and the top would not screw down.  The top piece was crooked. The knob to turn it on and off just spun and did not turn.   I contacted the manufacturer and once I submitted pictures and copies of my invoice, they replaced with a new lamp and it arrived within a week of my report.  So good customer service.   The new lamp did go together better.  However, the bottom section of the pole will not tighten down on the base.  The lamp is also a bit tippy.   It does work, nor more bare threads showing, etc.   Again very poorly made and for a cost of over 100 I would have expected much higher quality.
