Mismatched lamps
The wood mounting portion of the lamps are very different shades and no where near similar. After months of back and forth with product support, their best resolution was to leave the darker one in the sun until it lightens and they match. Really?? At this price? They also would not consider an exchange.

Excellent Mid-Century Modern Design
Awesome mid-century modern design by Herman Miller. We ordered two of these wall sconces to hang on each side of our master bedroom bed. We were impressed with the packaging and the quality material used for the sconce. The shade material is more durable than we expected and the nickel arm and walnut mount are made of high end material. The sconces give off much more light than our previous table lamps and its nice to be able to move them closer (left to right or up and down) when reading in bed. They are very elegant, excellent quality, and provide very good illumination.
