New Lamp!

A few weeks ago I posted about a lamp I found at Urban Barn and ordered it for my living room...well, it's finally here!  I love it, it works perfectly in the space.  It's a smaller, busier version of the Arco floor lamp, complete with marble base.  It's perfect for the awkward corner-niche in my living room. Here it is!  

I couldn't resist giving my lamp the Instagram treatment - that first image has the perfect filter.  But okay, here's how it really looks (still good!).  :) 






The marble base of the lamp is repeated on my bar cabinet at the other end of the room.

My lighting inspiration came from this lamp, but it arches too wide for my narrow room.

The lamp is great for reading under and it reaches across enough of the couch so that I don't need a lamp on the other side, freeing up space in my already too-narrow living room.  

So...what do you think?!
