These lamps are awesome.  They are unique looking and a great price for both lamps.  I did quite a bit of research for lamps and these were by far the best looking and surprisingly the most reasonably priced.  They were super easy to assemble - took about 2 minutes.  I'm using one the desk on in my husband's home office and the other in our formal living room.  Really unique - several people have commented on how cool they look.  Also very sturdy lamps.  Great buy!
