This is not a bad light by any stretch. It looks quite good and the shade is very nice.I have ordered a replacement to see if the second light has a flimsy shade mount like this one. It’s a bit lopsided and is oddly flexible where it connects.The lampshade came with some type of greasy substance on it. However, it looks fine after cleaning it thoroughly.Although I realize this was clear in the listing, the light is just on and off. I would prefer to couple the old school charm with a dimming switch. I’ll play around with different wattage bulbs first and maybe will replace with a dimmable version.If the replacement lamp doesn’t have the shade mount issue, this is a very solid light that looks great. If you are ok with the limitations of a non-dimmable unit, you will like this lamp.UPDATE: the company responded immediately and sent me another lamp to replace this one as soon as another became available. The new lamp looks lovely and is high quality, and it does not have any of the issues I had with the first lamp I ordered and received. Newsrays has been extremely helpful and courteous in all of their correspondence with me, and their follow through has been phenomenal. Based on the great customer service and the new lamp sent, updating my review to 5 stars.Lamp looks lopsided from the front. I took measurements and saw that the green shade was indeed attached to the post higher on the right side. Would be a wonderful lamp otherwise, but it just looks funny, especially when lit.Had a similar one years ago so this caught my eye Its a quality product. 5 star buy it I would give or love to receive as a gift Its REALLY nice. the metal is very nice quality finished beautifully. I get compliments whenever someone see its.A Chinese knock-off of a "banker's lamp" complete with a small but very visible dent in the metal. Seems sturdy.To rebox and return is not worth my time and effort.Lamp provides a warm glow. One side will appear more brighter than the other side. Mine had an imperfection on the lamp shade.I bought this for my husband for Christmas last year. His grandpa had one on his desk at work and when my husband was a kid, he always remembered that lamp. He was sure surprised to get one exactly like it and even made him tear up. It works great and looks even better, but the memories are worth so much more!!Just excellent. Very good qualityI've been on a retro kick for the past decade or so and have been needing a desk lamp that i don't hate.This worked out perfectly. It even has replacement parts available.Diese Lampe ist absolut lebensgefährlich. Das Gewinde der ein geschraubten Glühbirne schaut bis zu einem Zentimeter aus der Fassung. Die Glühbirne lässt sich zudem stark in der Fassung bewegen. Es ist keinerlei Berührungsschutz gegeben. Ein falscher Griff, eventuell auch bei ausgeschalteter Lampe könnte tödlich enden.I've always liked Bankers lamps particularly in green, however green wouldn't go with the decor of my room, so I searched for one with an orange shade or a white one. I found one orange shade but it was really expensive. I found several with white shades, so I had to weigh up which one seemed the best value for money, but also didn't look cheap.This one does the trick, you can tell that it's not straight from the 1920s but it's sturdy enough and is a good reproduction. The chain doesn't feel feeble, and unlike some others, where I'd seen reviews mentioning the wiring, this lamp came wired appropriately for the UK market, so all I had to do was get a bulb and plug it in. The only thing I would like better, is if it wasn't a brushed matt finish on the metal, as sometimes if you catch it in a certain light the base can look a little plasticky.La lampada e' carina, solida, fatta bene MA: come fa Amazon a venderla sostenendo che e' fabbricata dall' azienda Newrays quando su nessuna parte della lampada o del foglio illustrativo tale azienda viene menzionata? L ' unica cosa che vedo e' la scritta Made in China. Sono stanca di mio e percio' me la tengo cosi' ma questa non e' serieta', anche perche' ho deciso di spendere un po' di piu' proprio per acquistare qualcosa che non fosse una cinesata...Beautiful lamp and excellent value for money,Could have fitted a British plug to.not a 2 pin continental mouldedon plug.
