This is an AMAZING coffee table!  The base I chose was the black one.  You actually have your choice of 7 different finishes, all made of solid wood!  So, whatever your decor, this table will elevate it!  Also, the almost 1 inch glass fits very securely.  With a 3 year old and a 5 year old running around, you don't have to worry about the glass flipping!  Excellent find!
