If you are looking for a SILVER based lamp - this is NOT it.   These are definitely GOLD-toned more than they are silver.   However, in saying that, I love these lamps.  I bought these for my bedroom side tables and they are awesome.  Very clean looking;  stylish.   The came exceptionally well packed with super strong reinforcement pieces on the outside of the box for durablity (nice touch).  I was a little perplexed in how to put the lamp shade on as there is no finial to hold it in place.  Once I figured it out, it was fine.   They even provide the light bulb (LED/energy efficient), but the light switch is a 3-way switch and they only sent a one switch bulb.  I am going to switch it out because I hate the way the LED lights look, especially in the bedroom.  Would definitely buy from this company (CoasterCompany) again.
