These shears have been out of stock for a month in the white color. I emailed Wayfair about the color Snowflake and got a response the very next day. I was told the snowflake was a bright white which is what I wanted. So I went ahead and ordered the snowflake in the length of 96. It arrived on time and when I opened the shopping package the color in the bag of the shears looked like an off white. At first I was disappointed but I decided to hang them up in my daughters bedroom anyway. After ironing them and hanging them up they look fabulous, it certainly is a bright white and the shears look like linen without the price of linen. I really recommend these shears.
