Nice lamp. It's looks beautiful and seems really well made. My only complaint is the lamp shade. A lot of reviewers specifically say they like the lighting but I find the shade casts kind of weird grayish tone that I don't particularly care for. I was able to counteract it with a very warm incandescent bulb so am overall pleased. I personally wouldn't put the light over a chair or sofa being that it's so tall and would be too bright for anyone sitting under it...but it looks really nice off to the side and, with the warm bulb, is very nice accent lighting.
