The leather is kind of a creamy white, don't be expecting a bright white. The wood is definitely brown, I was hoping for something so dark that it would be hard to tell if it was brown or black. Its a little challenging to assemble but not impossible.after sitting on the chair the leather isn't perfectly smooth, you need to smooth it back out with your hand. So, it's not a high quality chair, but if you are looking for an inexpensive chair this fits the bill.
