I absolutely love my new lamp!! I recently re-decorated my entire bedroom, and the theme is very Asian-inspired, with lots of bamboo-type decor. This lamp was a perfect addition, with the bamboo-printed rice paper. It accents my other bamboo items very nicely. I wouldn't ordinarily spend this much on a table lamp, but overall, I'd say it's worth it. And it was so easy to put together - I did it myself, and I'm not exactly a "handy" kind of person! I would definitely recommend this lamp!! (Warning: in case you're concerned about color matching, the rosewood is actually more reddish looking than it appears on the website.)
