Fantastic items. Seller was ***TOTALLY AMAZING*** in helping me get these one of a kind lamps shipped from across the country- in short order -safely and with a great shipper who was communicative, accommodating and very nice, delivering even earlier than expected. Thanks Mark, and my thanks to Jody as well.
