This lamp does not look like it should cost what it does. The shade looks weird and flimsy. I have other mica shades and this one doesn't even come close to looking like a mica shade. It looks fake.
The square openings at the very top of the lamp are filled with a bright green substance and it further adds to the odd look of the lamp. I'm putting it in an office area that few visitors see. It would be impossible to return it because the packing was so difficult to unassemble that it could not be re-assembled to ship back. I'm chalking it up to a lesson learned about ordering things online.

Pros: Easy Assembly, Sturdy

Cons: Shade Not Like Photo, Shade Has Strange Pattern, Limited Illumination

So pleased with this lamp. Highest quality and beautiful. This is what my room was missing. It truly will be a heirloom.
