These lamps are not only beautiful but they are energy efficient because of the LED bulbs that we're included with them. They were packed with care. . . protecting them with lots packing materials to insure they would arrive at my home without any breakage.  Out of the box it took approximately 10 minutes to put them together and put the in their respective locations in my living room. They provide soft light in there . . . just what I wanted. Thinking about putting hue color bulbs in them later on to change up the mood I want to cast in the living room. But for now, they are beautiful as is.
