The table is beautiful.  The color is a nice white washed tan.  However, when the table was shipped, the top broke away from the bottom, leaving an uneven surface for re-attaching.  In my opinion, the table should be shipped as 2 pieces then assembled upon arrival.  My husband was able to make the repairs and re-attach the top to the bottom and  Birch Lane did refund 20% of the purchase price, so we were satisfied with the end product.
