This item didnt match all of my expectations.

Considering the price, I expected better finishing. 

It still does the job of lighting and decorating however quality is below expectations. 

My complaints are 
1- the metal rod was a little rusted when I extended it.
2- the shade material is cheap and theres a rim where the velcro attaches that you dont want to show to anyone.
3-the connection between the shade and the rod is a little week. Everytime my husband hit his head on it I have to go there and fix the angle of the shade.

Positive points
1- its tall enough and the arc is also wide.
2- the base is super heavy and looks like marble.
3- if you turn away the velcro rim in the shade, it can still look good.

I would thin twice before buying it again.
