Is the base black as pictured, or does it come in chrome similar to the other lamps like this?

It is black....but I LOVE this lamp. Bought it just because the house is one of those old ones with no wiring in front room. It is bright!!!! With three varying levels of bright! I have it behind a couch in the corner so you don't see the base. You could also cover it with plants. I get so many compliments about it!

Sadly, it is black and HUUUGE. It does make the lamp very stable, but it's a bit of an eyesore. Definitely keep that in mind when you're positioning it with your furniture. You will want to cover it up somehow.

My base is chrome. From what I understand you can get either but you must make sure you specify base color. I think both are FAB. just picture it in your space. P.S. its not the best for low ceiling heights, hope this helped.

The base is large and is black plastic, not smooth but with a bit of a pebbled effect. I was planning to paint it using the marbleized paint but , as it turns out, the base is hidden behind an end table where we are using it. Everything else is chrome-colored. The lamp looks very nice for the price--much, much lower than similar lamps. A far as I knew, we could not choose a base color. Would have chosen chrome if I did have a choice.

Like all the others. I am not a metalurgist but it a very dark bronze type color with dragon flies in the moulded design. It is adequate for stability and looks very good. I know it is not aluminum, pewter, or in the brass family. I am extremely happy with the entire lamp. Colors are brilliant.

Not sure if I know what part of the Assembly you are referring to? But the ones I received are both. The inside housing is Black but the two circular refection disks around the Hi/ Lo Bulbs are the traditional Chrome. Hope this helps.

The pole is very dark. When you look at it closely it is almost like a barber pole but black with dark bronze. The base is black. The bulbous top is very attractive near black with the raised design dark brown. I find the lamp to be very nice looking and have received complements on it.

The base or body is black plastic with chrome finish accents. The platform is chrome finished plastic. No metal.

I think it's a standard base. I initially put cfl bulbs in the unit then switched to LED. Hope this helps.

The regular base is metalic with black details. The all black have the metalic parts painted in black.

Lamps are brushed brass finish. I found them to be very elegant. Highly recommend.

I don't remember, I returned the lamp. It looked much nicer online than it did in person.

The lamp looks pretty evenly colored throughout. The top is more of a nickle, the very base is dark.

yes, it is the exact metal you see in the picture and it looks nice. I love the lamps!!

I would say it is mostly black, and the edges of the leaves and and the edges of the circles around the base stand out as bronze. It really is a pretty lamp. Done this way, it makes it more interesting than a blah one color. The switch is near the upper lamp.

It is black...the only part that is chrome is the inside of the small cylinder that houses the actual light bulb...im guessing to help reflect the light outward...

Glad you asked that. I was pissed to open the box and it was chrome outer with black on the middle. Nothing like the picture. If you want I could email you a pic.

When I received mine I was expecting the chrome also. The black are very nice and I am happy with them. The black color is not a solid black

It is a dark brown/bronze. Definitely NOT black. I specifically ordered this lamp because I didn't want an almost black lamp.
