I’ve been beyond pleased with my purchase of this lamp set! The blue coloring and design on the ceramic body is beautiful, the wood of the base is stained a lovely dark color, and the shade is nicely shaped (not the rather dated pleated/gathered shade seen on many lamps). The pair works perfectly in my formal and traditional/classic living room, and I’ve received many compliments on the beauty of these lamps.Packaging was excellent, with much cushioning to protect the fragile items. The lamps arrived in perfect condition and only took a few minutes to assemble and have “up and running.”The price was outstanding for the two lamps, and this product looks like something that would have fetched a much higher price. I’d recommend these to any home decor enthusiast who appreciates traditional design at a reasonable price.
