Wow! Awesome lamps.  Very classy, not gaudy. They do not come off as feminine.  They come off as modern and classy. They feel like the weight and quality of a 200-400 lamp.  
I spent forever trying to pick out the right bedside lamps. I was down to 2. My husband was the tie breaker, he picked these. He made a great choice. 
The pull chains are high quality, its a nice heavy, robust feeling lamp.  
The shade is white. Depending on the bulb wattage and warmwhite tones, the shade is more or less white-ish vs warm toned. 
The lamp is bit more sparkly with a higher watt LED standard bulbs (60 vs 40).  Depends what look you are going for. This picture is with 2 x 40 watt warm LED bulbs in each lamp. I think I like the round LED 60 watt true light (not daylight) bulbs better.  It accepts up to 60 w LED in each socket. 
This lamp was packed so well it was like breaking it out of a max security jail. )
