I ordered "2" of these lamps in the weathered gray color and they are absolutely beautiful!  In the picture, it appears to have a two tone effect on the base but the lamp is really all one color.  The shade on this lamp is gorgeous as well in a light heathered gray tone.  When lit, it has a soft hue that warms the room beautifully.  This is Not a huge lamp but it is the perfect size for a nightstand and the weathered gray color will go with ANY color in your room of choice.  If you are in doubt about ordering this lamp, don't be.  You will see for yourself how versetal this lamp really is.
