This pair of Table Lamps are made of black metal, cast in the whimsical shape of tiny birds, nestled in delicate scrolls.  They arrived on-time and in perfect condition.  I use them on a long bureau in my bedroom, and they provide a great deal of light.  I've had these lamps for about a year without a single problem, or issue.  I think this product would do best in a country cottage décor, which combines the more fragile subjects of nature such as animals, with the more rustic, stronger elements of nature like metals and wood.  The lamps are in a room with a graphic rendition of a large imaginary tree with a very dark trunk, a sky created from many shades of blue, pink and rose mountains, in a field of yellow/green grasses.  The little birds on the lamps look like they could fly right onto the tree and perch.  They provide a fanciful decorative element, which complements and unites the nature theme, without overpowering it.
