The stand has four square tubular steel uprights and a top and bottom metal plate (the uprights can be filled with sand or kitty litter, etc.) and look a bit like Sound Anchor stands. I think they look pretty good. The overall look is, in my opinion, prnice, but, it really is a fairly big speaker (hard to appreciate how big it is just from pictures). The faceted front baffle is, to me, more interesting to look at than a plain, flat baffle, and it serves the sonic purpose of reducing diffraction effects.
My only quibble with the speaker is one that I have with the vast majority of speakers on the market--it needs a tweeter level control (L-pad) so that one can make minor changes in the frequency response balance of the speaker; for my taste, I would at least want to try turning down the tweeter just a tad.
