My wife spotted this lamp somewhere online and liked the "stones." We had been looking for a pair of table lamps for a while, and didn't find anything we really liked in the stores, so we decided to order one of these from Amazon. (We didn't want to order both lamps until we saw one.)
We got the lamp pretty quickly, and it looks nice. As another reviewer noted, the color of the "stones" is lighter than they appear in the Amazon photo, and the color is a bit varied (there was even a hint of purple mixed in). There are a couple of other differences from the photo:
1. The "stones" are glossy ceramic and don't really look like stones, but we like how they look anyway.
2. The shade has a bit of sheen that doesn't show in the photo, but we like that too.
We ordered the second lamp, which took a bit longer to arrive than the first, and unfortunately the bulb holder in the lamp base was broken. The bulb holder can be folded down for shipping, but the plastic had broken and snapped off (probably during packing). I requested an exchange online, and Amazon shipped out a new one without waiting for me to return the old one (I sent it back the same day I got it anyway). As expected, I didn't have to pay any shipping charges in either direction.
I got the replacement lamp in a few days, and fortunately this one was intact. One thing about the replacement: The colors on the base are lighter and a little different than those in the first lamp we got. They still go together well, but this color variation might bother some people who order more than one lamp. The broken lamp's color was more like the first lamp.
I was happy with how Amazon handled the return, and I've had great customer service from them on a couple of other items I ordered recently.

Lamp arrived in two days! Kind of amazing. It's very nice. The "stones" are a little bit lighter in shade than the picture; the bottom two are light brown, the small ones are dark brown, but I was happy with that.
