I got this headboard in the dark gray it’s a beautiful piece it stands really high the material is really good it’s a strong  sturdy material. it like a Jean material it says linen...but if you want to imagine what it’s like I would say a jean material it’s really easy to put together. You do need 2 people a CON would be the material has a really heavy chemical like smell....so whatever they store the headboard it has a really heavy smell but the smell starts to fade away within a week or 2  however other then that it’s perfect!!!
