Is the lamp made of brass polished metal or brass colored plastic? Is it of a heavy weight? Thanks you, JMC

Hi, can someone tell me how the lampshade attaches to the lamp? Is it a clip-on shade or the kind that sits on the lamp and then you screw in the bulb (sorry, I forget the name of such shades!).

As far as I can tell it's all metal (the very bottom part isn't solid, of course). It's somewhere in between lightweight and heavyweight. It's certainly doesn't feel heavy when you pick it up, but it's not flimsy or light either for its size. I like mine and have no regrets about the purchase, but it does seem a bit overpriced to me.

This is definitely brass polished metal. Good size weight...not light by any means but not overly heavy. It was a very good purchase for a bedside table lamp.

It's nice and solid, and feels like metal to me (tho' I'm no metallurgy expert). I've been happy with the lamp.

As the description says, it's a polished brass finish and I can't really tell what's underneath. I thought it would be taller, but it's only about 15 inches high. I bought it used for about $18.00 on Amazon's Warehouse deals. I would never have paid $77.00 for it. Hope this helps.

This lamp is not very heavy. I believe it is either brass plated plastic or tin. I really am not sure. It sounds like metal when you tap on it, but that could be the plating.

Hi R.B., This lamp weighs approximately 22 pounds. I hope you find this information helpful. - Crystal, Plow & Hearth Customer Service

Lamp structure is metal - the lens over the bulb is plastic and a bulb comes with it along with a small screw driver to remove the lens - we have several of these lamps through out our home

The lamp is made of stained glass, or a type of resin that replicates stained glass. The pieces are soldered together, and the soldering material obviously has a bit of lead in it. I personally don't see this as a problem unless you plan on eating the material!

It is pretty heavy, I do not think it is plastic. I checked it before the installation, I saw metal inside (copper or brass).

This lamp has a shine but is brushed brass. I love this handsome piece that is displayed in my living room. I get lots of compliments. It came very well packaged. I could not have picked a better lamp to display in my living room.

The base is weighted plastic. The center is ceramic. The shade makes it top heavy. Put it in a safe place and it is a good working lamp.

The lamp is a dark rich brown color; the shade is a white plastic. It is a nice lamp, but one of the threads that assembles the pieces of the lamp was missing and we had to create one ourselves and splice and re-attach the wire to pass through it. The lamp looks nice, but it was a lot of effort.

It is definitely not made of brass. It is silver and gray in color but pretty light weight, so possibly plastic.

The base is metal, and it's superior to other lamps we've installed. The bulb is well protected. I left all outside this past Minnesota winter, and all are working today. It's a good product.

It's metal, and it does get pretty hot when the lamp has been turned on for a long period of time. However, I just grab it by the flexible stand. It cools off pretty fast as well. For the price, this is a great lamp. I don't regreat purchasing it. In fact, I would still buy it if I had to do it over again. Hope this helps. :)

I spoke to my brother-in-law and he drilled a hole in various tables (he moves the lamp around a lot) and was able to put the "screw" part in those holes and tighten the clamp really tight. All parts are metal, not plastic. He thinks it is a really good product. I hope this helps you and sorry for the delay.

It's lightly a brushed/satin finish, but still reflects light off of the outside finish quite a bit. We really like this arc lamp - it's big, impressive, heavy-based. We get a lot of compliments on ours (we bought two, one for a music studio and one for our living room). No surprises on each, shipping was great and prompt. Would buy again. Enjoy.

The lamp and shade are very nice. Sort of looks like linen when lit. It is not linen.

It looks and feels like real glass. I personally love the lamp. It is solid and you can turn one light on or two with the little chains. I am pretty sure it's real glass. It's not plastic. That is for sure. The lamp has a little weight to it. 5 stars!

It is sort of weighted, not extremely though. The light is great. I just have it on a vanity table and sit when I use it.
