I had been looking a long time to find the right shades for some wall sconces I had. Originally, I had white shades but didn't love them. I decided to go with the black with gold interior (the gold casts a beautiful warm glow to the room at night), I absolutely LOVE them! they are so worth it. They are not exactly the same size as my original shades, as I was unable to get the same dimensions, but I just made sure that the the height was almost the same (I went 1" longer with these).
