These lamps are beautiful. Great quality, easy to assemble, and a value for the money. I would highly recommend them.They are very stylish.Bought the lamps with blue shades. They look more expensive than they are. Good quality.When I decided to revamp my living room I fell in love with the lamps on the showroom floor. Those were $135 each. I was able to find them on Amazon for $75 each and nearly pulled the trigger before I found these! 2 for $75!! They're in the same mercury glass style and they're actually more visually interesting.In the photos they look more silver and the shape is a little more pronounced. In person they are a lot closer to mercury glass and the shape is not as sharp if that makes sense. The geometrical shape is not as prominent. The base is sturdy and level. Assembly is easy.Only complaint is the darn Styrofoam it came packaged in. Both lamps came in one box. That was perfectly fine. But the Styrofoam was so much. I get why it was done that way, and had it not been they may have been damaged. Styrofoam is just the worst (sticks to ev ver rey thing!).The lamps came packaged really nicely but after putting them together they were a little crooked and bent in a weird way I had to carefully bend them to look correct. Also one of the nobs you screw on to the top of the lamp was "flaking" off the brushed nickel coating under it was just a normal shiny silver. I'm a little upset I paid so much for these to have them chipping right out of the box. I do like the look of the lamp over all. They are nice and tall and the glass is beautiful. I would give a higher rating for a new knob for the top.I purchased these several months ago now, and I'm so pleased with them. They're holding up well and have just enough of that mercury glass glimmer to make them special without being flashy. I love the shape - not something you see everywhere. And they aren't what I'd call top heavy as I'd read in some reviews, but if you have rambunctious animals/kids, I can see where they might topple over if given a good bump...something to consider.After looking for bedroom lamps, I had placed these lamps on hold. Someone accidentally hit the purchase key and they were sent to me. After putting them together I was very happy with the look of the base and well as the shade. The only part of the lamp that I do not like is the bottom of the base which is felt and it does not stick. Otherwise I do like the product which is a great value for 2 lamps.For the bedroom,Size is nice. 2 sets of lamp shades.As previous reviewers noted, they are a bit lightweight so can be easily tipped. The base is a bit wider than what I would have liked but the overall look is very nice. I bought them as I wanted a base that had both silver and somewhat goldish highlights. The lamp shade is white. I recommend them!The two shades were dented & had black marks on them . I called they are shipping me two new ones hopefully they will be better.The turn on switch not the greatest.
