This piece is described as rustic. However, the workmanship is inexcusably poor: nails and screws are not driven in straight, with some of them going clear through to the other side of the wood and sticking out. Splinters are everywhere- could the maker not have given this table a light sanding? Luckily, I bought it to go outside with antique pots on it, but nevertheless what a disappointment! I do not recommend buying something from this line, because the item gives the appearance of a rush job.
