I have this lamp and the shade is glass pieces not sure why anyont thought it was plastic and base is medal. It's a very nice lamp 24" high, bigger than most of the other stain glass lamps I have.

It is definitely not plastic. I'm not sure if it's 100% metal but it is heavy. It is a beautiful lamp.

It's not metal though it looks like it. It's some kind of composite material that's heavy.

The base and column are metal, however the shade is plastic. Even though, it is till a nice looking piece.

Metal base. Don't know about the description info. You'd have to ask the company.

I took out the lightbulb and checked. It's certainly not plastic. I'd guess it was ceramic because it seems too coarse to be porcelain.

I guess you mean the clamp that attaches to the table. I don't have the lamp in front of me--it is at our vacation house--but to the best of my recollection it is metal. I am very happy with the lamp. I have an OC White that I purchased over 5 years ago for around $500. I prefer this lamp and the value for money is excellent. The magnifying glass is large and clarity is excellent. Easy to maneuver and holds it position well.

Hi, I just took a closer look at my Blossoming Leaf Lamp. I can't honestly say if it is real glass or not. I am not an expert. I do know that it does not look cheap by any means. Sorry, I couldn't be more help to you. I still love the lamp no matter what it is made of. I still give the overall appearance 5 stars.

Brass base is the metal base at the bottom of the bulb. These are not Brass base bulbs. It has to do with the conductivity of the bulb to the lamp Holder (bulb holder).

The base is a solid structure; the only thing you may have to do is put the shades on. I love this lamp, considering a second one!

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

It's actually metal. They have a felt bottom to prevent any scratching. My only negative is with the lamp shade. When mine (I ordered two) arrived, there were small dents in them.I think I am the only one who notices them though. They do attract dust and pet hair more than a normal lamp shade as well. I hope this helps.

The base is metal and heavy enough to make it stable. I really like this lamp. I also purchased the 3 way floor lamp and 2 bulb table lamp. Very pleased with all of them.

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.

I'm not in the same place as my lamp right now, but I believe it is adjustable height-wise. It only has an on/off, so you can't have a three level bulb in it, but its actually decently done and a lot less expensive than similar lamps on Restoration Hardware or Pottery Barn. I've just had to really tighten the screws and then it looks really great. It's definitely above Ikea and not plastic-y, it is I believe made in China, but actually looks like wood, even if it probably is not. The adjustment is in the middle where the upper and lower legs join.

The base and post have an antique brass finish, but I can't say what exactly the metal itself is. The lampshade is made of glass. I'm really happy with this lamp. I hope you find it to be the perfect lamp for you, too.

Good morning! The entire unit is plastic with the exception of the hanger. They are really an attractive lamp and I had intended to hang mine on a small shepherds hook. But alas! The batteries would not charge! If you notice they are a discontinued item so who knows how old they are. I wouldn't bother with them especially if you want them for a special event.

I can only say mine is round and came that way. I can not answer for anyone else. Once mine was hung you can't tell it is plastic. For a real fussy person this might be "not good". For me and the purpose of the light and the price, I am satisfied with it. If you want glass then go shop for a high priced one.

thank you very much for asking.The base of the lamp does the job, the only problem I had was the AC Adapter because it did not workI had to buy another ... everything else worked well

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.
