This chair arrived early than expected so that was a plus. The other thing about this chair, is that it is beautiful. It was everything I was hoping for and got more. I love the linen fabric, which will go well with my linen duvet color I chose for my new bedroom. I wish there was a matching ottoman to match but oh well I have the chair. My only negative I have with the chair is the wood surrounding. It is very rough to the touch and it give splinters. I will just use some fine grit sand paper to smooth it out and it will be as good as new. I love my chair and it was a good buy also.
