The color is a little more of a beige/soft yellow than expected vs. a beige/cream.  But we have a velvet gold yellow sofa, so that was no problem for us!  Wood tone looks even nicer than expected, a little darker than the regular mid-century walnut.  The seats are very wide too, more than expected but in a good way.  Super sturdy/well made feel. We got the whole Oliver dining set & love it (seen with the Colby dining chairs in rust)
