Kenroy Home 21056WH Glover Table Lamp, Gloss White Ceramic Review

(More customer reviews)Really, this is one of the most beautiful lamps I have owned.
The proportions of the base to shade are wonderful, which is the first thing that usually puts me off about lamps that arrive packaged with shades. This shade, too, was beautifully finished: no hanging threads or little scrapes. The shade is off-white, even a dark off-white (but not beige, at least in my brain's color catalog), NOT stark white. For me, the off-white is a little more forgiving of our Front Range dust (or the un-dusted dust of my living room!).
The base, itself, I find captivating. Ours is on a dark table in between two "butterfly" chairs. At least we call them butterfly chairs. Although these are from the 1950s, I doubt our nomenclature because I can't find any images on the Web that resemble ours. Nevertheless, with the open-wire, rounded shape of the chairs, by my "lights", this lamp is perfect. Our living room now needs a bit of catching up to this eye-catching base: either simple, simple or fussy-fussy. Other than those chairs, the rest of the room is middle-middle, which isn't a great fit for this lamp.
Another thing that would not be a great fit is lots of rowdies racing playfully around. The base is pretty narrow; the shade is pretty wide. Tip City, anyone? I have a feeling that even a mild -- say, less than 3.0 -- earthquake would be a sad event here. I think I might try a way of anchoring the lamp underneath. Frankly, I don't want to find out whether it will work.
One more thing. You might want to check the dimensions of the lamp for your space. The lamp doesn't tower (or loom) like so many lamps, but I think it would be a bit large for a nightstand. Not checking this out might cause a disappointment, I think.
The packaging worried me because the box was so compact relative to the lamp size. It was a relief to see that packing material studier than the ubiquitous air-pillows had been cunningly wedged around the lamp and shade. Everything seems to have been in perfect condition, including the little wooden globe that serves as a finial.
This lamp appeals to a particular taste. If that retro-modern taste is yours, too, this might work for you.
