I bought the taupe color.  Love the lamps and that they are not carbon copies of each other.  Craftsman workmanship, each a little different.  They arrived super well packed, no damage, the shades were in perfect shape, no dents, etc.  Beautiful lamps are a super addition to my guest room.  Only unfavorable note, the lamps were still covered in a whitesh film, needed to be washed well before using.
