I love the size and neutrality of this Leipzig lamp. If it's perfectly in a smaller area and adds a warm touch to my room. I love that I can turn it on and it's not so bright and glaring that it hurts your eyes. I have a softer bulb in mine and it just makes the room feel warm and cozy. The color is definitely neutral. Its design is simple it elegant. I actually use mine as an accent lamp and totally love it. It's perfect for a living room, bedroom and even in an RV because it doesn't take up much space. I've gotten many compliments on it.
