I bought the pair of lamps in light grey for my end tables in the living room.   It's the perfect height - not too tall, not too short. The texture is faux pebble leather.  It's simple, beautiful, and updated looking.  Upon delivery, I was pleasantly surprised that the lamps are (which unless I missed it, is not advertised online). I removed one star for two reasons: (1) the faux leather is sloppily glued on and it's not aligning perfectly along the edges.  No biggy - it's only noticeable up close.  (2) the assembly was not as easy as imagined.  It was particularly tricky to twist the neck/socket onto the base without tangling the cord.  I'm sure the cords are tangled inside the base, but as long as the light turns on, I'm completely fine!
