I bought this desk in white. It is gorgeous and I love that it's solid wood. However after I set it up I placed some pen holders and file tray on it, and two days later I have noticed that it already has 10 different scratches on the surface. The white finish is so fragile that it immediately scratches upon contact with anything hard. For the price paid, this is really disappointing. So now the desk is already damaged, and I have to get a custom piece of glass cut to lay on top of it so it doesn't get worse.
