Comes in a well packaged L-shaped box, with the chair wrapped in a nice dust cover.  Literally all you have to do is screw the chair legs in, which are packaged inside the bottom of the chair itself.  Ta-da! Done, and it looks beautiful.  I ordered the chair in teal, but i'd say that it falls somewhere more between Peacock teal-blue and Emerald Green.  Still beautiful though, and I love it.
