This light worked out great for our set up. The size and coloring of both the lamp shade and the metal pole and base were perfect for what we were looking for. There are two slight negatives, 1) getting the lamp shade ‘rolled on’ perfectly was a challenge. 2) the lamp tilts forward,  just a bit (probably because of the length of the arched pole), but I just balanced it with a little something under the base. All in all, I would recommend.
