Beautiful and fairly priced (around $15.00 savings from other vendors and no wait for shipping) was a good deal even compared to some of the lesser rated lamps on Amazon. These are so well packaged there is NO CHANCE of breakage. Don't even need the instructions that come with the lamps, so quick and easy to assemble and nice not to have to make an extra trip to get bulbs. I purchased them for the office and loved them so much I ordered another set. My second purchase was basically half price because I bought them from Amazon Warehouse in "like new" condition. they came in the same packaging and were in perfect condition except for a bit of a glue or cement in a small spot on the crystal section... you can't even see it! I will try the warehouse option again if available for other purchases. Customer service told me that if purchased that way you can still return them the first week if you disagree with the "like new" designation, so it was a very small risk!
