I ordered this in the garnet leather.  It looks exactly as pictured.  It's sturdy, but soft leather with a small design on top, zipper on bottom.  Sturdy enough to sit on but we use it only as a footstool.

Delivered by Purolator in about 2 weeks, which felt a bit long.  Also, Purolator didn't ring the doorbell, just left the package outside the door.  Good thing it didn't rain!

Happy that they ship to Canada, this product is worth it.  Feels like a forever product.
