The color pictured, and the actual item is not green. It is more of a blue green with emphasis on the blue, which I found really disappointing. Additionally, it was difficult to put together because many of the screw holes were out of line or not already large enough to accommodate the screws and the screws especially the little ones had very soft tops, which made it hard to screw them all the way into the wood. Also, some of the finish popped off around the holes where you had to insert the screws. The directions weren’t that great either with many of the pictures being so small it was hard to make out the detail.. I’d probably return it if it wasn’t such a bother!… taking it apart, and repacking it.
