The color is cool, distressed gray. For being wood, the table is very lightweight and seems flimsy. While this is very inexpensive option, I was expecting nicer quality. The table is also not sanded very well, there are many rough patches on the table that make me fear splinters are coming soon- which is not good for lots of little kiddos eating outside frequently. Overall looks nice but poor quality. Would have returned but return shipping is $50- not worth spending 20% of the table price to return.
