Was very pleased with these lamps...beautifully packaged for shipment, and arrived in perfect condition.  The price for TWO beautiful lamps cannot be beaten.  The ONLY issue I had was that the "Brown" color selection was not as dark as I thought it would be.  The shades were not the taupe color shown in the selection, and the bases are silver, but spattered with brown -- but give the overall impression of silver bases.  But even so, the quality is excellent, and I'm getting used to the more silvery base.  All-in-all, would highly recommend this product.
