Lovely armchairs and overall very pleased with them. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is due to the fact that nearly half of the four legs on each of the two chairs bought  had slight knocks/scratches on them down to the bare wood. Also these chairs are VERY firm, just what my husband likes but a little too firm for me. Only had them a day so perhaps the seat cushion may give a little in time. But they seem very well made and look smart. Lastly, they are more of a duck egg blue than photos show.
