I am looking at the gold. Are they shiny and reflective or more of a matte or brushed finish? Thanks!

I agree with the previous replies, they are neither shiny or dull. I would say they are brushed.

They are matte. I think u can tell they are plastic but it doesn't look bad. I have two sets hanging from the ceiling as room dividers. I think it looks pretty cool.

It is not shiney, it is like a matte finish, very nice I thought. I am very impressed with them.

Flat yellow gold would be a good description. It is not sparkly or shiny at all. Think Oil-cloth if you're familiar with that material.

Mine surely aren't chrome, but they are a glossy finished grey. I will say that the pictures make them look a bit nicer than what they actually are. However, I still really appreciate having them.

They are pewterish. They certainly are not gold or brassy looking. Hope that helps

These are metal gold plated. They are very attractive when added to the peace. They add a very soft and subtle hint of gold. Great buy I might say myself.

Well, I don't use them often, but I THOUGHT they were matte. Wrong! They're shiny! It sounds like maybe they've sold both kinds. Good luck, Scott!

They are more 'glossy' than 'matte', but not shiny-glossy yet nor are they flat-matte either. Sort of in-between. If you scroll over the pic (zoom in), it is a very good representation of how they actually look when light hits them.

As I remember, they looked brushed. They were installed pretty much immediately in one of my apartment buildings, so I didn't give it too much thought. But I do think I remember them as being brushed looking and being happy with them. Definitely not "chromey"

Hi Sherry - I can't exactly answer your questions, but I can tell you they look like a sleek, matte metal. I've had them for over a year and there's not a single mark on any of them and they look much more expensive than they are.

There is a bit of shine from the stainless steel but it's fairly muted, and the surface looks brushed. I'd say it's matt.

They are matte or at least non-reflective. I use them in a room with a fair amount of ambient light with no trouble at all.

They are definitely shiny!!! I also have a matte set on my boat so I do know the difference:-)
