I love them! They’re a really lush deep green velvet. The gold legs are a matte darker gold. Not shiny. Notice they’re the same coloring as the Juliette Glass Top Coffee Table (also from Wayfair!). 

They’re quite sturdy. Came already put together in the box. I’m short (5’3”) so they’re a great height for me but maybe a tad low for taller people.
