(2)shade pretty but poor quality fixture and non-standard bulbs

Don't be fooled by this one, or others in this line (manufactured in China). The shade is pretty, however, the mount for the fixture is impossible to install as flush (I'm a competent engineer), due to design tolerance errors. As a result, the light reflects against the ceiling in a distorted pattern instead of illuminating the room. Moreover, only a couple of short screws hold the thing together with the result that the fixture is flimsy and insecure relative to the weight of the shade. The sockets for engaging the bulbs are plastic rather than ceramic, and this is likely a fire hazard - and certainly could melt the wrong bulb. The only bulb which may be used is incandescent 60W type "C" with small base - i.e., think of the old fashioned tear drop Christmas tree light bulb - which, since Congress has legislated these among the energy inefficient, may prove difficult to procure in the future, until a replacement LED is made
