On the white version of the lamp, is the vertical back panel black? Or is the entire unit white? I've seen some promotional photos with black on them.

I'm not home right now, but I do think the back of the riser piece has some black on it. That said, it really doesn't overwhelm (in my mind).

Yes. It is black. To be honest i just noticed it after you asked me! Very happy with the unit

Dylan, I had to look and see, but the front or lamp side of the vertical arm is white and the back side is black. That is not a problem for me, and the bottom line is that the Softech lamp is the best desk/reading light that I have ever seen!Dave in Virginia

The vertical back panel is black and the panel control too. The rest is white.

I ordered 2 of these lamps -- each one is truly unique, so you won't really know what color it will be until it arrives. We received one that is more white/crystal-like, the other is a deep orange. I like both of them! :)

Dear JT-I would say that the lamp shade is medium green, however, the green appears to be darker near edges. I can send photos if you like. Contact me at gfegley@hotmail.com if you want photos. All the best, Glenn F.

The back is white. Mine is on the wall, so I pulled up one corner and could see the lines on the back, but that was with the light behind it and not a wall. It would probably be barely visible if it was put up on a wall.

This lamp is definitely taupe-colored. Over this, there is a"gold-ish" paint, making the shade champagne. Other parts of the lamp (mag. glass arm and clip arm and clamp mount) remain taupe. I have only used the clamp mounted n a shelf and have never used the desk or floor stands. Everything blends well together and it is a beautiful, very functional lamp.

white, but it isn't as bright as I need it to be and the angle is off slightly for miniature painting, so I use an external lamp.

This listing says "clear" is it actually clear or is it frosted clear (white) like the original one? i'm looking for more light in my laundry room, the stock one doesn't let a lot of light through. Thank you

The lamp is a dark rich brown color; the shade is a white plastic. It is a nice lamp, but one of the threads that assembles the pieces of the lamp was missing and we had to create one ourselves and splice and re-attach the wire to pass through it. The lamp looks nice, but it was a lot of effort.

Sorry if it doubled the answer.It is beige and black, kind of retro looking. It looks pretty especially when lighted. It gives warm atmosphere.I mentioned the oil looking stripe on the base in my review. Now, It doesn't really bother me. I might be used to it, because I placed them in my bedroom, so not so exposed to the guests. I'm quite happy now for the price. It is a good buy.

It is black. Unfortunately had to send back as it didn't work:( Nice looking lamp.

I purchased a white light and the inside is white as well. Not sure if the other color options are the same. Great quality light though.

The color is lighter than what's shown in the first picture (front view). It's closer to the color of the third picture (showing the side view), but not as light as what's shown in the picture with the lamp. That's the color from inside the window/room, but on the other side of the window/outside, it's white.

It actually is pretty dark. It is brown and not black though. But, again, it is a dark shade of brown. I would warn you that is is a very low profile center. It doesn't stand very high off the floor so I would take that into account and make sure it won't be too small for the location you are putting it in. Also, because some assemble required. I'd recommend not tightening down the screws on the top so that it's easily removed. That makes setting up the wiring behind it much easier and you'll have less chance of damaging it when you're adjusting things.

No lights at all. And aw man, they make it in black?? I didn't even notice, I got white. But hey, white is cheaper and it's under my nightstand anyway. :)

The lamp has an off white shade. There is a brass colored pull chain to turn the lamp on and off and the clamps that go over the headboard are white. The lamp is wonderful, simple and easy to use. I would buy the lamp again.

There are 2 pictures that are shown -- the detail photo looks really yellow and warm, the thumbnail I see when writing this review looks pretty much white. My lamp is definitely more white than warm and yellow. However, I would say it is a soft neutral white, not a harsh "bluish" white like some LEDs you see. My decor is mostly warmer colors and this light works well.

It sounds like they keep changing the design. Mine had screws in a bag. I couldn't pry the top or bottom off. I pushed the light panel in: no joy. I held it more-or-less horizontally by the metal strip in one hand and smacked that hand with my other one. After 3 smacks the bottom panel dropped down 1/8 inch and I was on my way . . .
