It’s hard to get a really good photo of this chair because of the lighting in our room . I would say that I was a little concerned about how the actual color of this leather chair would look in person ( too gold or a cheap orange ) , however I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived . It is a beautiful saddle or camel color and it does not look like cheap leather at all . The color is nice and the leather is very soft . It is very comfortable also. It reclines perfectly and the foot rest doesn’t drop down as I have experienced with a previous recliner. This is a great value and I’m so glad I took a chance .
