Can anyone tell me if the white background allows light through and does it feel like glass or plastic or paper...? Thank you!!

Yes light passes through but you can't see objects the other side of the screen. The paper is paper. Looks, feels, smells and tastes like paper because it is. Very happy with the product. Hope this helps.

It does let some light through. It's papery, kind of like on those Chinese-style lanterns. You can't see through it at all though.

The background allows light and it feels like paper it's pretty thin but it's durable unless you poke some thing thru it. They are well made otherwise Good luck with your search!

The screen is rice paper and allows a soft filtered light through. Screen is unstable and easily toppled.

It feels more like a thick dryer sheet. It does let light through a bit, but not completely. I really like mine a lot!

I don't the reflection an issue. But did notice 2 issues with vinyl compare to paper: 1. There are waves on the background because of the weight, similar to what you see with fabric. 2. The bottom where it bends when it touches the ground, it's more reflective there and shows up. Unlike paper where you see a smooth curve.

The plastic is pretty thick. It might be too thick to have any light shine through.

It's white, but like all white backgrounds you need to light it correctly I would say 1 stop over you exposure to ensure pure white. And make sure it's evenly lit if you want it perfect.

I use it for art projects and find the light to be white. If the paper I am using is very white, I find a bit of a glare.

It is very clear, transparent, like glass. Not opaque (my old cat door was probably what you call opaque, like a haze or film over it; this is definitely clear in comparison).

Actually it's clear. The film is opaque and the leaf pattern is much less so. I can't tell you how many compliments I've had on this wonderful alternative to curtains. It lets light through while you have complete privacy!

It is a clear seeded glass so it's not completely transparent but it's not colored at all. I'm very happy with it. I have other exterior fixtures near doorways that are a similar style but with clear glass and they always look dirty and when I try to clean them I get streaks. These don't bother me because the little 'bubbles' in the glass hide the streaks and give it a kind of aged look.

It looks and feels like real glass. I personally love the lamp. It is solid and you can turn one light on or two with the little chains. I am pretty sure it's real glass. It's not plastic. That is for sure. The lamp has a little weight to it. 5 stars!

It's pretty transparent, verging on translucent. If the decal is dark it will definitely show through. I can read a piece of paper behind it... Hope that helps.

Hi Eric! The white will show through a bit of light, though the others keep the majority of the light hidden. A bit will peek through, though it will be a lot less than without the covers. As some customers have mentioned here, it's all a matter of preference and may depend on how much light you need. Apologies if that is a bit vague. If there's anything else, just let me know. I can be contacted directly via this link:

Its a tempered glass. Glass is clear at the edges but roughed up all inside. So you cannot really see-through the glass for the most part. The green tint is more due to the angle the picture was taken and the surroundings(floor, ceiling etc). I got this few months ago and am really happy with it. Its not a large workspace but it suits my city town-home lifestyle very well!

The screen is white paper which does let some light through. It would screen the sun out but I'd be worried that it would warp very quickly. Mine was not at all in the sun and it warped anyway.

You can see through it fairly well, you can tell what color the contents are for example, but it isn't transparent like glass. I think the term is opaque.

It's glass. I love it. I'm not sure I would use for makeup because it lacks a light.
