This is a beautiful desk- exactly as pictured. The reason for only 4 stars is because the finish seems delicate. In fact, I got the whole thing put together before I noticed a small chunk off one corner in the back (which could have resulted from the way it was delivered and left standing on end). It was packaged extremely well. Joss and Main has outstanding customer service and I know they would make it right if I decide it is worth calling them. Nothing is perfect and a small vase of flowers will do the trick to hide it! This desk is doubling as a night table in a guest room and is perfect for that. I would not buy this for everyday use by anyone other than a careful adult. But it sure is pretty! Sleek, clean and modern. I do love the look a lot.
