Beautiful, heavy, and classy-looking lamp which is great quality and value for money.  I like the switch being on the plug cable, which is clear, so you don't have to fiddle about underneath/inside the shade.  I've changed the white shade for a pink velvet one so it fits in with my bedroom decor.  (I bought it to replace a very expensive lamp base from another retailer because the switch had broken with very few uses!)  This lamp is taller, heavier and altogether more impressive than the previous one - the glass elements sparkle in daylight and in the artificial light thrown when the lamp is switched on.  I'm really delighted with it.
