Different colors adds a nice texture to it.  Was afraid it would look cheap and similar to an outdoor table, but it was quite the opposite .  Got a new leather couch that we had custom made and it looks great in front of it.  It's hard to match woods that look good together if you are one of those people who don't like to buy matching sets of tables.  This is a great table for those who already have multiple wooden or metal pieces in the room.  Looks nice mixing materials like wood, rattan, metal, and leather.  Very happy with my purchase.
