We purchased the black velvet with gold bases and we love them! These swivel, which was a surprise to me because I didn’t read through all the specs but it was a wonderful surprise! To me, the quality seems a bit low for the higher price tag but I’m not disappointed. The hardware isn’t gold so it stands out (only 4 screws can be seen) and the screws that go into the swivel portion are so long they interfere with the swivel mechanism so that’s kind of a bummer but is an easy fix and overall, they do look beautiful and are what I expected.
