Love, love, love these lamps.  I inherited my mother-in-law's hope chest which is absolutely gorgeous.  Since I didn't want to hide the chest in a bedroom, I have put it in my dining room, and have these lamps on it.  It all looks fantastic.  The ball and claw feet on the legs of the hope chest, actually work so well with these lamps.  A bit of the old world with the more modern.  I tell you, It really makes the room.
