Lamp arrived promptly and well packed. Sadly we were disappointed to find the base and shade were badly scratched so we are returning for a refund. Decided against a replacement due to poor quality. It's a shame as it looked great in the photos online.

A sturdily but elegantly built table lamp which - in my opinion - was very good quality for money.

The antique brass colour of the base was nice, much nicer than the bright brass that other companies were offering. I originally found myself a lamp with a glass shade as it was a gift and I thought the glass would be a nicer quality but the glass shades were rife with defects and scratches, the plastic shade on this lamp was much better and didn't take away from the look of the lamp. Good value for money.
