I am in love with this lamp.  It is exactly what I was looking for.  It shipped so fast and was perfectly packaged.  The quality is excellent and it was very easy to assemble.  The lamp shade is in a slightly off-white very nice material and the size of the shade is perfectly proportioned.  It has a translucent cord and switch, which makes it blend into any kind of flooring.  I am very happy with this purchase.
