This is a beautiful lamp, but like other reviews when it arrived the cord appeared to have been cut. Also despite the excellent packaging there was a chip at the top, which had to have been done before packaging because it was packaged so well and the chip piece was nowhere to be found in the wrappings.  Wayfair was amazing and sent a replacement that arrived quickly.  The replacement cord also looked like it was starting to be cut.  My Electrician cousin showed me that the cord was being cut or completely severed from the lamp itself because the top of the lamp where it feeds through before you put in the part for the bulb is sharp and in packaging it rubs on the cord cutting or severing it completely. Otherwise the lamp will work for me.
