No they are not clear, they are a bright shiny white solid color. They are very pretty, try them, you'll love them.

Yes they are clear. But why would you want to turn of the pretty lights. I did by holding down the LED Illumination key, the same one that changes colors.

While I have not used them in such a way, I would consider them translucent. They will allow light to pass, but not so much as to make objects out through them. The places are on the print that are not colored are clear. So, if you were to place them on a peice of transperent glass you may be able to see a bit more clearly.

They are lightweight. I caution you on the shipping, I ordered 3 sets and 2 of them were broken, 1 set I keep as it was the small plate, the other set was broken to pieces. Good luck!

Yes, they are... though they are not colored... they are crystal clear... as long as the base size is what you need.

No they are absolutely clear. Great glasses though. Hard to find a water glass this big! I love them!

Of course, they are glass. However, they are barely noticeable. I've had them for quite a while now, and entertain a lot. So, that's oodles of forks and knives working against the dinnerware. They still look GOOD! We snowbird between New England and Florida, and have FULLY outfitted our 2 homes with the entire Libbey sets. They compliment our different style homes beautifully. I would never want to use anything but clear dinner and glassware again. And this style is perfect for us. (And I also own Royal Doulton, but, I really like the Libbey better.) I'll tell you a decorating technique I use: I decorate the whole table by placing a festive paper napkin under the plate and silverware along side the plate, sans napkin. The whole table lights up with the colorful, themed napkins showing thru. I like these so much, I buy them as wedding shower gifts. And the recipients love them, too.

Hi Paula. These dishes are as lightweight as your typical dishes and they are not stoneware - not heavy. The looks you see is due to the color/glaze that is used to color the plates. I think the they are made of ceramic - or whatever the typical/breakable dishes are made of these days.

They are clear. From a few feet away its actually hard to tell the difference between these and our actual glass version. We have these for outdoor....

I thought they were clear when I bought them, but no. They are actually white with white stick strips.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they are 100% ceramic. If they were just ceramic-coated, I think I would have noticed by now because I've had it for a year and I haven't noticed any wear or tear on the plates. It works great!

I think they are clear glass. Since we only took it out of the box and never put it together, the glass appeared clear.

The ones I received are clear with a slight texture that seems to cut down on glare but they are NOT glossy clear. They work great for name tags and hold up well. I was able to customize with company logo.

They are clear. Have had them for aprox one year and still working good. I use them every day and put on top rack of dishwasher.

They are silver in color - definitely not plated - although I am not sure if they are the same inside and out...sorry for less than wonderful info :)

Mine have the marking on the bottom, but they are clear. I didn't get the green ones.

The backs of the plates are glazed a smooth plain white except for the actual rim of the base. (The bit which makes contact with the table.) That part is unglazed and feels slightly grainy.
