These are a nice pair of lamps at a nice price.  Because of the oval design of the base and shade, you get a tall lamp that doesn't take up too much space on your table.  Like another reviewer said, the picture appears shows it to have darker "antiquing" than it actually has but it is still very pretty and elegant so I provided a picture.

Pros: Looks more expensive than it is
Cons: made of inexpensive material - not ceramic
