Love everything about these drapes. The on-sale price was great and they were shipped REALLY fast. The material is high quality and of a good weight. The pattern for the 'Natural' color panel is actually less 'shiny' and not as gold as  appears in the ad, which is a good thing. The background is a natural shade of beige with the pattern being a darker brown/taupe shade. Fully-lined, is blocks out a lot of the light, but not sure they'd be considered truly 'blackout' if that is what you need.
