Customer Reviews
The lamp arrived swiftly and intact. It was well packaged. It is not blue and white and this description needs to be changed. However, I knew this as it is obvious from the picture. I am very pleased with the lamp and it looks perfect in my 'chinese' corner, giving off a warm light at night.
I was very disappointed to discover that this lamp is not blue and white as advertised but beige/biscuit coloured,therefore does not suit my decor at all. Beautiful lamp but I was specifically searching for blue and white. The lamp was very well packed and arrived in first class condition
I am an avid teapot collector and have recently done my bedroom in blue and beige. The color of the lamp is definitely blue and beige and not blue and white as it is described (unless the color swatch is one of those fancy white terms). The lampshade arrived torn but I didn't feel like going through the process of returning it for that reason. This the second one that I ordered in less than a month. It is beautiful and would definitely order another one if it came in another color.

The body of the lamp is cute, although why they call it white and blue is a mystery to me. The harp is too short and should be replaced because you cannot screw in a normal -sized bulb. Then, once you get a bigger harp, the shade doesn't fall right. Also, the shade is paper-thin and it came damaged where it split at the seams. In other words, it looks much better in the picture than what comes in the mail.
