"Item describtion and picture color was not what I received. Grey is vitually nonexistant, so if your looking for grey color in this lamp, might look elsewhere. Maybe I just received bad apple. Fixture is beautiful, hardware is questionable. Understand there will be variance in color of stone but this was not even close as to web-site picture, very disappointed. Offered to send another, but what are the chances in receiving worse item and paying more."

"A lovely lamp, especially nice at night. The base is wood and is a nice complement to the lamp.
A great value for a substantial piece of art.

"The lamp arrived well packaged and in good working order. It adds a warm, glowing light to any room, and unlit during the day it looks like a beautiful handmade alabaster vase. The lamp is substancial in weight and has a strong presence. The electronic parts could be more sturdy, but they'll do the job, and if they conk out in a couple of years, the lamp can be rewired and the housing will look goreous forever. This was my first purchase on Overstock.com, and I couldn't have been more pleased with the entire transaction."

"The alabaster lamp is located in my bathroom. It adds a beautiful touch to the decor. The lighting is very subtle,and creates a warm feel to the room. The alabaster is so unique. The colors,design, and shape of the lamp are most impressive. It was expensive,but I am so glad I bought it."
