Beautiful!  This was even more beautiful than I was hoping.  It's made of solid walnut with a smooth natural finish, perfect for both modern and traditional decor.  The sides are made of multiple pieces of walnut finger-joined together, so it looks more like the second two photos, not the first.  But it's still beautiful and the height is perfect.  I plan to use it in our master bathroom as a towel rack. The angled ends help it stand upright at just the right angle.
