I purchased this table in the light blue. I have not put it together quite yet so I cannot speak to how easy it is to assemble, but the blue is not as light as it is in the picutre. It is more of a worn light blue due to the antique style of the piece, which is fine, but was not expected. It is still a very beautiful peice from looking at it and it is a perfect size if anyone is planning to use it as an antique table for a small hallway or entry way.
