A fine piece of furniture, and beautifully packaged.  Unfortunately, the color was much darker than I had envisioned based on the photo and description.  Ideally this should be labeled as dark cherry or black cherry, unless the one piece I received is an anomaly with regard to color.  Not worth the effort to return it at this point, but if I had seen the true color beforehand, I would not have purchased it as I was looking for something much lighter.
