It's beautiful and well made. Very heavy since it's solid wood. But I do know it's Rubberwood which is a lot softer than you're usual wood, so it's much easier for this to pick up scratches and dents, like I can easily mark it with my fingernail. 

However, distressed is all the rage right now so a few marks is only going to improve "ascetic" as long as I upkeep the sheen.
