I like it very nice condition too. Is it difficult to get it to stand on the wire shelf?

Good purchase!

Raven, it fits very comfortably on the wire, solid as anything. I was very pleasantly surprised.

I like it a lot! We have a lamp with the same base. Great minds think alike. 🙂

I think you should go back and buy the other one, too.

Sweet!

Looks nice!

I like the lamp, I like how it peaks through the plant too. nice!

I had a lamp similar to this one. It had a slightly different base and came with a similar shade. Problem I discovered when I had to change the light bulb was that the shade was too close to the bulb and the inner lining was damaged. A lot would depend on where the bulbs are in relation to the sides of the shade. Since it was the lamp we left burning when we went somewhere I considered that were were very lucky that it had not caught on fire. Had it until it fell to a early grave but with a much larger and straighter shade.

I like it -- yes go back and get the other one so you have a pair :-)

Score!

go get the other one before someone else does - like me! I'll look for one at my W next trip there. I really like that lamp!

Desertsteph, I got it at a thrift store. I called and the second one is still there, but it's missing the finial. I think that's the correct term......the little holder that screws in at the top; the pineapple on my lamp. they'll sell the lamp to me for $5. I'm not sure what I can use as a stand-in.

I agree, good score.

I needed a small lamp for my kitchen counter, couldn't find exactly what I wanted even in an antique shop. Guess what I found and where? A lamp in the shape of the Eiffel Tower, painted silver, at Dollar General for $12! I'm still using it.

I think it's really cute, we have two almost like those. If its feet don't want to sit on that wire, you could just put a little tile under it. You can usually find those at the store for a dollar or so.

They sell finials at Walmart I believe.. or check Amazon. The thrift store might have some too! Also try a furniture store.

I like it! You might want to put a piece of glass, or a book, under so it doesn’t slide in the opening of the wire.

That is very cute indeed. You can find finials on eBay, they may have a matching one listed. Some of the big box stores sell them as well.

Finials are sold lots of places

You can always get a smaller bulb like the ones for ceiling fans. Or led that do not get as hot.

I love it!! Go for it. Yes, finials are found in many places. Even a lamp repair place would have some.

Desertsteph, I got it at a thrift store.

thx Jasdip! I won't look at W then. I guess I just remembered you'd looked at W, but I never saw one there I liked as much as the one you bought. I don't get out to thrift stores anymore and I do miss that. The closest store to me is our GW and that's 6 miles away.

yes, finials are around. buy the 2nd one and then you can find one you like. if not a match use it elsewhere in your home. It wouldn't bother me if the finials were different.

I had to get smaller bulbs for one of my ceiling light fixtures, so they're available.

That is a great lamp! Yes, go back and get the other one. and finials are easy to find.

OT - I love that picture of your husband.

It's a lovely lamp. I would get the other one if I had a spot for it. As someone mentioned I would place a book under it on the wire top.

Nice lamp, Lowes and At Home sell finals. That would typically be called a buffet lamp since that's what it would be used for.

I'm definitely getting the other lamp this morning!! The more I look at it, the more I love it.

So far I've tried an LED and chanedelier bulb. The light is on a timer, and the chandelier bulb makes it so warm and cosy looking.

It's perfect. Don't you just love it when spending so little money brings you such joy?!

I like it!

I like it too!

I have to ask how are you caring for your evergreen? I have one of those from 2 Christmas' ago and it's struggling. I put it outside a bit this summer but it kept turning brown and dropping branches. So he's back inside now. Yours looks perfect!

Share, I've had mine for a few years now. I call him Rudy and decorate him for Christmas, he's my tree.

I stuck him outside last summer, thinking he'd like the sun......they don't at all! Some of his lower branches turned brown and died. Once they die and fall off, they don't re-grow, so leave yours inside.

He might get a couple hours of sunlight, I get late afternoon sun in my livingroom......more in the winter, as the tree out front blocks a lot of the sun in the summer, which is good. Lots of water. When I lift the pot and it's light it's time to give a good soaking.

Great buffet lamp, and,YES, you need the other one! I agree finials are so easy to find.

Thanks Jasdip! I will follow your suggestions!

So pretty, hope you get the other one.

At Home sells the harps also.

Any lamp repair place would have them as well.

Most of the harps used to be slightly springy so that they would be more stable and less likely to pull out of the holder. Times do change but I liked them pressing on the sides of the holder.

Bring the harp from the other lamp with you when yu go looking so you're sure to get the right size.

Nice!

I like your lamps ! You been given some great suggestions. I want to add you could also buy a cheap lamp at the thrift store to get a harp and finial.

So nice you got the second one!

Good score. I think they're very sweet. The only thing besides clothes that I ever bought at the thrift store was a lamp. I loved the large ceramic base and thought I'd get a new shade but grew to love the shade too and it's in my bedroom. Five dollars because it was 1/2 price on seniors day.

I have three giant Norfolk pines that live in my basement greenhouse in the winter but all three do well outside in the shade. One my little granddaughter gave me for Xmas one year and it was six inches high and is now getting to six feet!!!

Wow Lily!!! Fantastic job on the Norfolk pines!!!! I'd love to see pics.

The more I think of it, the more I like the idea if picking up a cheap lamp just for the harp/finial. The harp is $10 at Home Depot from the advice I was given on Freecycle, etc. I can probably get a lamp cheaper.

Jasdip, you inspired me....I went to Goodwill on Saturday (everyone was masked and distancing), and wande

I went to Goodwill and found a lamp with the small harp for $5. Yay! Cheaper than the harp alone at Home Depot ($10)

It's an inch taller than the other one, so you can see a bit of the harp under the shade. The other lamp's shade comes down lower by an inch.

Is this a terrible faux paux or is it acceptable? Keeping in mind that I'm not fussy, and pretty laid back and casual; or should I keep looking?

I think it's acceptable. I barely noticed it.

It's acceptable.

so glad you got the 2nd one and a finial and harp for it! what a great buy. I love finding good stuff cheap - and love 2nd hand stores. my problem is I have so much stuff already! I'm working on getting rid of things. I have lots of things I'm gathering up take to GW. so much that I know I will never use and it's just taking up space here. plus I know it isn't stuff my kids will want and I don't want them to have to deal with it. I don't want to deal with it all anymore.

It's a cool lamp....and saving money is "not getting ripped off"....which is how I feel when I pay full price. ☺ Good for you....getting the matching lamp. I should start a "bargain" thread. Hope you'll post it there.
