I am an avid teapot collector and have recently done my bedroom in blue and beige. The color of the lamp is definitely blue and beige and not blue and white as it is described (unless the color swatch is one of those fancy white terms). The lampshade arrived torn but I didn't feel like going through the process of returning it for that reason. This the second one that I ordered in less than a month. It is beautiful and would definitely order another one if it came in another color.
