From what I have read, 5500K is the industry standard for white light.

So I received the umbrella lights and started playing around with it.
Here's the whole set up:
Here's one of the better results I could come up with:
As you can see there's a fair amount of glare off the polished surface, I tried rearranging the lights and different angles, but still get that glare, any advice on how to get rid of it?
Thanks!
Thanks guys!
So following the advice I put the 2 lights behind to blow out the background. After playing with camera settings this is the best result I could come up with.
This is with flash, lowest ISO and +2 exposure:
I found out that the color temperature of the overheads are 4200K while the ones that came from B&H are 5500K giving it blueish tone. Will be looking into replacing the B&H ones with 4200 or the other way around.
I think I'm going to have to convince them to get 2 umbrella lights for 45 degree angle from the front to get rid of shadows and maybe not have to use flash...
