Very nice lamp but there are a few things that are hard to tell from this small thumbnail photo.
The shade is not a pure white but more of a linen/natural color.
The base also has a bit of worn look to it around the rim.. kind of a gold finish—which I personally like. Just saying it is not a solid black all the way down.

Overall, very easy to put together and it's very sturdy. The switch also comes as a round circle piece that lays on the floor for you to just step on.
