I'm happy with this item. I must say it's definitely versatile and can adapt to a lot looks. When I first got them, I had them on a tan table runner with orange candles in them. It looked like it was ready and waiting for the Pilgrims to sit down to their first Thanksgiving dinner. Now I've got them on a tray with blue candles in them, and they look fairly modern. One nice thing is that they look heavy, but they're actually fairly light (though not so light that they'll topple over easily).
