Beautiful Lamp. The quality is beautiful. The colors of the base are blue\gray\ swirls and transitions beautifully to a brown\grey at the top. The glaze on the lamp is shiny - not matte. Depending on the sunlight in your room, the lamp will appear more blue or more grey. The lampshade is white - some pictures I've seen make the shade look beige, but it is bright white. One item of note ...There is a  piece that secures the shade to the lamp ( so  looking down from the top of the shade  - sorry I don't have a picture) that some people may not like. It is the same color as the base of the lamp. I don't mind it, and you really can't see it unless you're right on top of the light. The cord is very long - so great! The lamps are well packed and arrived in beautiful condition. For the price, a pair of these lamps is a great investment! Thank you Wayfair :)
