I expected the glass to  be blue, like the picture.   They're  turquoise. My first thought was to return them; however, after holding one over a lit bulb & seeing how beautiful it is with light coming thru it, I've decided to keep them !!  Our home has a lot of blue & turquoise; so, these lights will work fine !  They're really gorgeous & I love the variations that you find in glass.   Definitely a keeper and very well priced !!
