Comments about The Praying Mantis Floor Lamp

I ordered the Praying Mantis Lamp in white ash. The item I received had two legs that were very different colors as you can see in the pictures. While I understand that some natural color variance is to be expected, this is extremely noticeable and quite disappointing for a lamp that costs more than $2k. I expected better from such a well known manufacturer.
