Hello elizabethanne, could you upload a picture of the lamp without the shade? I would like to see the rest of the hardware. Thanks, Johann
hi johann i will try to take some better pics a little later this week once i get back up there and will post them, thanks for peeking at it!
Just a suggestion and I hope you don't mind me saying but! if you change your main photo and put your second or third photo it may get recognised easier, they show more detail and are the right way up!.....:-)
:) thanks
