Item as shown.  A nice brushed brass finish.  Came with all screws, etc., to easily put on the wall.  We are using two of these on either side of our bed for reading lamps.  You have to set the lights up where you want them positioned because once they are set in place you cannot move the arms without getting out of bed to release and reset the arms.  This is manageable but I do wish there was a switch on the lamp itself.  To turn it off or on I have to use the wall switch near the door.  I am bypassing this by leaving the lights on and unscrewing the light bulbs to the off position when not in use. Otherwise, a very attractive lamp.
