Nice chairs given the price point. The black and more of an off white pattern are centered on each chair. Relatively easy to assemble after the first chair. Really only about 5-10 minutes each. Had my husband do the final tightening of the screws. I ordered 3 sets of 2 chairs. 3 of the chairs had a crack on the wood surrounding back of chair. I thought it was a design flaw, but the other 3 chairs were fine. Birch Lane was super about replacing the others. They came within a couple of days and were just fine. 4 stars because the wood is a little unfinished, but that is the look. Very pretty chairs.
