These lamps are beautiful! Nice and simple. Not too big, not too small, and they were a breeze to put together. These are a great purchase for anyone looking for some lamps for their bedroom end tables. (Especially if you have 2 end tables) The lamp shade has a nice little pattern on it, as if it's woven. It looks expensive without being too expensive and they work so well. The lamp has a flip switch along the cord, in case anyone was wondering how to turn it on and off. I think it looks so nice and I'm very happy with my purchase.
