Smart purchase for me...I love this lamp! Just what I was looking for to complete the design style in my family room. This lamp is true to every detail of the sellers description and even more beautiful. However, the "blue" color is closer to a light teal/turquoise. It was excellently packed to prevent breaks and damage, and every piece was included. It was a breeze to assemble. I have no real mechanical experience,but assembled myself in 15 minutes! I recommend, but be warned that it sells out fast. I waited four months for a re-stock.
