I had a very small spot for an accent chair--couldn't be too wide nor have a high back. This chair, in the light mossy green the manufacturer calls 'Basil', is just right. It came nicely packed, & was very easy to assemble in 20 minutes with the enclosed Allen wrench & pictorial instructions. The fabric is lovely to the touch, somewhere between micro-suede and velvet. It has a very firm seat and back--not a sink-in type chair. We think it is quite comfortable.
