Beautifully made and heavy duty construction with deep set upholstery buttons. The white is a pure bright white.Have not attached it to the frame,  but will be using a standard metal bed frame with a box and top mattress that is not too high. If need be when purchasing your mattress you can use the low profile 4" high box and up to a 10" top. You need to think about how much coverage you want on the headboard from this mattress height. You may be able to adjust the attachments higher that are sent with the headboard. When you look at the picture notice the placement of the pillows as they are not standing up. Was well packaged and delivery was quite rapid.
