Ordered a pair for my living room and they are beautiful. As other buyers have commented, there are no white or silver horizontal bands in the glass base (so online picture a bit misleading in that regard). I would describe the base color as a frosty blue since the glass is not transparent. The darker aqua bands are a deep teal (or thereabout). The shades are pure white. The cords are clear. The harps and finials are shiny silver. Three way switches allowed me to continue to use my existing 3-way LED bulbs.
