The lamp came in a box matching the size, but unfortunately only wrapped in paper and foil, without any other filling material, i.e. loose in the box. Fortunately, it was not damaged during transportation. Although stated in the description, there was unfortunately no light bulb included. But you can find one yourself. Large socket, 40 W maximum. So quite normal, no problem. The lamp is really big and looks great. I`m really thrilled and delighted to have found it here. The decorative globe is simply slipped over the light bulb. Without any fastening, which you don`t need. The color of the leaves is a dark petrol, very nice. The workmanship is also neat. I can really recommend the purchase.
