I purchased 2 lamps for bedside lighting in a guest room. I was looking for lamps in a gentle blue color, but could not find anything in the size I wanted so I settled on this Anwar lamp in ivory as a neutral color. The shades were a bit crumpled coming out of the box but I think the little pleats will even out again over time. I don't like the black cord, but I do like the lamp itself so I'll live with it.   

Pros: Attractive lamp base, a perfect size for bedside lighting, and a very good value.
Cons: Ugly black cord. Arrived with slightly rumpled lampshades (but should be OK in time).
