lamp
tfpup  from Farmingdale, NJ,  Nov 19, 2009
I look for unique lamps and this one tops them all. The lighting is just perfect to offset the room.I chuckled when I saw the rudimentary "how to" instructions, but once you read them, it was easy to put together. Though i was afraid at first to stretch the wood - I can see now how strong it really is.....still be gentle but don't be afraid to stretch it a bit. This lamp is absolutely a beautiful accessory.

Great Unique lamp
terris18  from Ashburn, VA,  Nov 24, 2009
This is a unique lamp that provides the needed additional soft lighting to my 2-story family room. I had no issues with the electrical workmanship. It was fairly easy to put together. To me, it adds character to the room! I really like it. If you are looking for something functional and unusual, this is it.

hard to put together
paughe  from Michigan,  Nov 17, 2009
You definately need two people (and all four hands) to put this lamp together. It looks great and provides ample lighting. The craftmanship is good.

Such a Statement Piece
funshopper1  from Charlotte, NC,  Nov 15, 2009
Bought this to put in our Great Room along a wall that I hung a BIG Wall Art piece on, that I also bought from Overstock. The Lamp looks fantastic! We have Med. Linen colored walls and Dark Brown Leather Sofas and it looks very awesome in the room. Gives off just the right amount of light we needed in the bigger room! Love Love Love it!

Sioux Floor Lamp
rapotempa  from Orland Park, IL,  Nov 11, 2009
The style of the lamp is quite different from your standard floor lamp. It complements the livingroom quite well, expecially with the new bamboo floors. A nice feature that should be added is separate switching for top and bottom lamps. I would recommend this fixture to others!

I bought this item , and receive it soon. It was dirty and very hard to assemble, but beautiful. After one week it fractured from all wooden parts, and I returned to the overstock and they gave me credit for that.I do NOT recommend it to anyone.

I absolutely love this lamp! The wood is much darker on the one that I received, which is great for me because it matches my dark hardwood floors. It took me a total of ten minutes to assemble. Easy instructions. You just pull out the parts that are already corded, slide the brackets open and stretch the fabric in between the bracket and frame. The fabric is washable, so any dirt can be easily removed. It has all the charm of handcrafted items. I put this one in my asian-themed living room, but am thinking of getting another one for the sitting area in the master bedroom. I just love the look, it is unlike anything you get in stores.

Such a great look!
larainslo  from Central Coast, CA,  Oct 8, 2009
I agree with some of the other reviews on the problems with the electrical connection - I had to return the first one I received. Having said that - the 2nd one has worked fine - I've had it for about 8 months now, and I LOVE this lamp!!! It is so unique, and so interesting looking - but not gaudy, and certainly not cheap looking. The wood is a nice dark color, the fabric stays clean, it stands straight upright and looks great with fine or casual furniture. I have used it in my living room and I get complements on it every time a new person comes over. It is a GREAT purchase!

I received the lamp in a timely manner from Overstock. The hand crafted workmanship was well done. The instructions to put it together was too basic and a little hard to comprehend, under traditional cirucumstances, but was simple enough in the end. It is a hand crafted piece so that should also be taken into consideration. Love the lamp in my living room and the atmosphere it creates. Would definintely buy another one. Thanks!

A Work of Art
jdb777  from Albuquerque, NM,  Jun 18, 2009
Wow do I love this lamp! It is not only a wonderful and unusual work of art but also a conversation piece. It is sturdy and provides a bright yet not overpowering light to my room and I love that it has both an upper light and a lower light. I keep the description about the 9 Columbian artists who make the lamp and how the special wood is "cut by the waning moon" nearby so I can share it with guests who enjoy the uniqueness of this lamp.

This lamp is very impressive when lighted. It is rugged looking but the fabric shades tone down that ruggedness and gives it a classic feel. It would look good in many different decors. Mine looks great with my dark brown leather sofas in my eclectic living room. I would certainly recommend this lamp for someone looking for a rugged lamp. Workmanship and design are very good.

mskitty3230  from rio grande valley, tx,  May 12, 2009
i love this lamp......the challenge of putting it together took all of 15 mins tops for me....i was in a hurry and rushed to do it but it was a snap!!!!! spots?.....stains?......too tiny to matter, i got bulbs in on the first attempt!.... i put it in the corner and it fits perfectly.....the size is what i expected and the style...true to the picture! i have only had it a week so if the wood splits, won't know for awhile.......but i am very happy with it!!!!!

akina  from nj,  May 7, 2009
i have been eyeing this lamp for abt 2 years now and i finally bought it. Its great!!!It looks very elegant in my living room and compliments my contemporary decor. i would definitely reccommend it to anyone. There were a few black smudges on the cloth of my lamp as well but like everyone else said, nothing that cannot be cleaned. It is definitely very unique.

Original look
DBaa  from WI,  May 5, 2009
I like the lamp, instructions are a little poor (on photo copy paper) I did not realize the switch was on the cord, so you need to reach to the floor to turn on. I added a toggle switch and wired it so the bottom lamp or both can be on.

Beautiful Lamp!
puddles33  from Pittsburgh, PA,  Apr 29, 2009
The lamp arrived the other evening and the box looked smaller than I imagined the product. Once I pulled it out of the box I was instantly impressed. The lamp is very uniquely crafted and easy to assemble. I assembled it myself in less than 15 minutes. The product did not come with bulbs, I'm currently using energy saver bulbs and they're working perfectly. I thought the lamp may have various settings, but there is only one. Very bright-maybe it's just my bulbs? Overall-I absolutely LOVE THE LAMP! It looks stunning in my living room. The fabric did have a few black smudges on them, but nothing that couldn't be cleaned off-they're hardly noticeable. I highly recommend this lamp!!
