This chair is sleek and tasteful in a modern setting. The blue tone is a bit smokey (not Royal) mid tone blue, so it fits in beautifully with other accent blue tones. This is an accent chair for me and yet it is very comfortable. It is a nice mid sized chair so it doesn't take over the room. It arrived on time and all that was needed was to put on the legs. I also sprayed it with "scotchgard" and the material handled it well.
