Very pleased with this lamp. Like the vase/shade of it. Perfect height at its lowest,  for me. Sturdy with heavy base. The glass shade does attach firmly with the over socket that you unscrew and remove  before placing the shade on, then  
  screwing the outer scoket back on. I used 40 watt or 9 watt led in it. Nice and bright. The glass is shot through out with little bubbles that make nice shadows on the wall.
