You just never know what you are going to get when you order online, and I can tell you I was pleasantly surprised with this purchase of these lamps. The marble and brushed gold bases, along with the shades are all well designed and made. No unfinished or sharp edges on the bases, nicely constructed shades. The lamps were a bit smaller than I expected but still suited my needs perfectly. An added bonus was the reusable packaging which works great for me as a stager and the constant moving. The purchase even came with bulbs. I'll definitely be looking for this company, Jonathan Yi again when making a furnishing purchase.
