Striations is both handsome and unique; we viewed more than 400 table lamp pictures online and saw nothing that came even close in style and value.
We would have rated it 5 stars, but, alas, the lamp is wired for 100 watts, maximum. The blurb promised a 3-way socket that could dispense up to 150 watts. Since we wanted a super-bright reading light, we were disappointed that the manufacturer never bothered to revise the description of its (newly configured?) wattage. So, caveat emptor to those in search of beauty AND brightness.
