The lampshade is smaller than I expected, it could have been a little bigger. But I still don`t think the shade is bad and will keep it now that it`s hanging anyway. The hanging lamp is visually interesting, the attachment is a little fiddly, a cable tie has to hold the threads on the cable. However, this is not noticeable. The material is sturdy and probably won`t break so quickly, so I`m satisfied here too. The patterns are varied, I opted for the prayer wheel and think this look is absolutely fine. This lamp is something different and stands out from the typical paper lamps.
