The lamp looks great from several feet away but if you get too close, you see the defects. The leading on the shade is not real - it's glued on. On my lamp it's separating from the glass in a few spots. I'm not even sure the shade is made of glass; it kind of feels like heavy plastic. All in all, if I had seen this lamp in a store and been able to look at it closely, I would not have purchased it due to the quality. It does give off a very pretty, soft light and I like it enough to keep it. I've made purchases from Overstock in the past and been very happy with the quality of merchandise. I guess you win some and lose some!
I am not a real fussy person and have a beer budget (not Cristal). The lamp looked so cute in the picture and I knew it would go nicely in my living room. The edging is all crooked and the shade has an oily like film that I can't get off. The packaging was ridiculous. When I took the pieces out of the styrofoam they were encased in the styrofoam literally exploded. It looked like it snowed in my living room. When I tried to return it OS.com wanted me to pay *** to return this piece of junk. I will go to a craft store to buy some material to try to straighten out the edges and then put this in my guest room. If my guests are tired enough they won't notice the poor quality. Overstock from where? I guess China is overstocked on this item? I can see why. I will not be ordering from OS.com again.
These lamps are heavy and nearly impossible to tip over (we have small grandchildren who grab onto the table edge to stand). We've received lots of compliments on them. I was very happy with the quality of the glass in the shade and the ability to turn on one or both bulbs is a real plus.
We've enjoyed using these lamps in our home office as desktop lamps. You can switch up enough lighting for both day, late-day, and night work. The sockets accommodate power-saver bulbs (not always the case with specialty lamps!) which reduces the heat and waste. The lamps are substantial; they don't get knocked around when moving items, yet they are portable enough to adjust for different types of work. Shades make the lamps quite compatible with laptop or office computer work -- no glare. Quick to assemble, and easy to maintain or clean.
I was somewhat disappointed in this lamp because I thought it was going to be actual stained glass, but it is not. It is some sort of plastic and the caining that decorates the outside of the shade is plastic which has been attached to the outside. However, I kept the lamp because it is not unattractive and works for what I needed it for. Just don't expect too much.
I was disappointed in the construction of this lamp. The description specifies that the lamp "features pieces of hand-cut stained glass wrapped in copper foil." While this is technically true, it's deceptive. All the detail around the perimeter of the shade is NOT individual pieces of glass. Rather each section is a single piece of glass with a metal grill over it to make it look like many pieces of glass. For purposes of comparison, this lamp's shade is made of 20 pieces of glass. A Quoizel lamp I own that didn't cost very much more has nearly 250 pieces of glass. Also, the packaging of this lamp it atrocious. It's packed in a type of styrofoam that shatters into thousands of grain-of-rice-sized pieces when you attempt to remove it from the box. They pick up static electricity, so when you try to pick them up they either stick to you or are repelled and shoot under the couch. I was picking up the little *** for literally weeks.

This is not going to fool someone into thinking it's a Tiffany, but it's got some heft and is pretty. I like that it has two bulb sockets so you can control light levels. It's held up well for almost two years with occasional use (a few times a week).

It was easy to assemble and it met my expectations of quality and color, even though I thought it would be larger, I will check for the matching pole lamp.

Lamp is great for the price. Color and style was right on. Very happy with the product and customer service help given when product arrived cracked. A replacement shade was received in short order.
These were "assemble it yourself" lamps--even down to attaching the felt onto the bottom of the lamps. They aren't made real well and I thinkthey were a bit pricey for the quality, but I nevertheless like them. They aren't real leaded glass, but appear that way from a distance. I especially like the Craftsman styling with it's simple lines.

I bought two for our bedroom and they are a good size for the night tables next to the bed. Ample light with two bulbs and shade is glass. Beautiful and heavy.

I am disappointed with the quality of these lamps (I bought two.). A few years ago I bought two similar lamps and only paid $$ more per lamp and the quality is SO far above the quality of the ones that arrived today Not only is the finish rough, but the pull chains on one of the lamps are about 2 inches longer on one that the other. Luckily I'm just using them in one of my guest rooms and I can live with these imperfections...but I'm still not happy with the quality.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. not so great
I am quite pleased with this lamp. I got it to replace another craftsman-style lamp, also relatively inexpensive, that was broken from being knocked over so many times. This has a good solid base and and provides very good light, which can be adjusted by pulling the cords. If you look closely, it's obvious it was factory-made. But this is in a spot where it isn't accessible for close inspection and the style, size, weight, and design are fine for the purpose.

When my lamps arrived I was thrilled beyond words! I had read most of the reviews and was mentally prepared for what to expect in the box: cheap boxing, exploding styrofoam, and oily shade. Easy to see it was 'Made In China'. What I found, in spite of the former, was a true Tiffany-style Mission-style lamp. The shade was authentic mica glass, the leading was a bit rough in spots, and the base was very heavy and sturdy. The pull chain gives authenticity to the Mission-style. Great touch! Assembly was quite easy. I had ordered 2 table lamps and found one of the shades had broken during delivery. I called the customer service and received excellent and prompt service. My replacement shade arrived intact in a short time. I do have a couple of concerns in that there is no notice as to what wattage is acceptable for the double receptacle lamps. After screwing in some bulbs, I found that it was a tight fit and that the bulb and glass came very close to touching. Hopefully it won't become an issue with overheating and the glass breaking. I also ordered the matching floor lamp and found that the base is totally different from the table lamps. Not sure why on that issue. My husband had no idea that I had ordered them and was thrilled with the look and feel of them. Huge hit in our house!

I'm looking at it right now. We put it on our desk next to the computer. I usually just turn on one of the two lights in it. It is heavy and overall appears to be a good quality lamp. Not flimsy or cheap at all.
