The chair looks exactly as it's pictured on the website. The color is more taupe than tan, which I like. As other reviewers mentioned, the seat cushion is HARD! If you are looking for a comfortable chair to cozy-up in, this might not be for you! I was looking for an attractive chair mostly for decoration in the corner of my bedroom, and it's perfect for that. Also, as many furniture items are these days, the seat cushion is NOT reversible (no fabric on the underside). So if you are planning to use the chair frequently, the cushion may wear down quickly with no options for flipping it over to extend its life.
