This lamp is made in China, FYI. In any case, it is very well packed. I had no damage at all. Unpacking was easy. The top shade is in a separate plastic bag than the base. Taking it out I noticed that it was covered in oil of some kind. I can't say it was dripping with it but it was definitely covered in it. I point this out as it will make the shade very slippery. I would not advise dropping this shade. It is extremely delicate and sort of bends easily. The lamp base seems pretty sturdy.

The base has four projecting arms. You are supposed to fit the shade inside the arms; each arm has a little phlange that holds the shade in place. You have to very delicately bend the shade slightly to fit it inside the phlanges. If you put too much pressure you might crack the shade. The shade is held together by tiny joints of copper and seems very easily destroyed. I would not recommned this lamp for households with children. If it gets bumped, say goodbye.

I wiped off a lot of the oil from the shade but it is still oily to the touch. I am very reticent to bathe it or try to clean it aggressively. Seems like if you apply too much pressure you'll destroy it.

Simply stunning. It has a switch on the lamp cord and pull chains as well. I would recommend using the circular switch and avoid sticking hands into the shade. Too easy to damage. Would be hard to fix if not impossible.

Not only unusual in design and color, these lamps are very beautiful. Unlit the lamp glass colors are muted bronzes, deep deep red, gold/yellow highlights. When lit, they come alive with shades of deep red with gold/yellow highlights. The lead holding everything together is a muted black. The framing is a bronzed metal. They make a statement on their own. I paired mine with mission style end tables, console table and coffee table and a huge sectional couch. The lamps are big.... big shade and big base. They are 25" tall from base to top of shade and the shade is 17" square. Any cut glass tiffany/mission style lamp will be somewhat fragile due to the way they are made. The base of these lamps are very sturdy while the shade is somewhat fragile when not sitting in it's frame on the base. So, a little care when unpacking and placing the shade on the base is warranted. They are packed well and instructions are not needed to set up. Any instructions provided are useless as they describe another type of lamp. The night light inside the base comes with the bulb, with no clear way of replacing the bulb. I believe access is obtained through the bottom of the lamp under the felt bottom, which would have to be removed in order to access the light inside.

I was elated when this arrived. Lovely decadent color and arrived 2 days before earliest delivery date. However the instructions are one page that is a photocopy of one image. No words. It shows my being able to detach the base from the bottom of the lamp base in order to install bulbs in the body of the lamp. When I looked at the bottom of the lamp there is beautiful black felt covering the base, no screws exposed for me to unfasten. Do I rip this open? Yipes! I REALLY don't want to do that. It says lights bulbs are included but none were in any of the packaging or screwed into the lamp already. I scoured the packaging and no bulbs. I am over all pleased and am becoming more and more concerned that this lamp will work at all.

Honest reviews on Tiffany-style Mission Double Lite Table Lamp

Shipment of this lamp came within the week. The shipping box was damaged in two areas--actual torn holes, but the lamp was unharmed. One of the bronze arms was bent almost straight up making it much higher than the other three and putting on the shade impossible. Fortunately, we were able to "very carefully" bend the prong down so that all four prongs were level (otherwise, we would have had no choice but to return it). There was a bulb in the base (night light), but not any others (no problem). There were no instructions inside the box so we have no idea how to replace the night light when it goes out. I am hoping that instructions to do so are available. As for the lamp, it is absolutely stunning!!!!! Beautiful!!!! We are very happy with the purchase.
