I sent it back because the lamp shade is fixed at the top and pretty much uses gravity to extend the shade to the bottom. The problem is the paper shade is so light weight that the shade pulls up and rests against the light receptacle. The angle of the shade as it bows outward does not give enough room to clear the bulb so the PAPER shade sits on the light bulb which even the energy efficient bulbs get HOT thus making this a real fire hazard. Would look nice but poor design due to lack of ability to fix the bottom of the shade in place where it belongs which would probably take care of the shade touching the bulb.
