Such a great chair! I got two in black. I really love the high backs and they really are a nice choice for the price in comparison to similar styles which are much higher priced. The quality so far is pretty good.. feels comfortable to sit in...while it is not an everyday chair, I suspect it will hold up..nice little lumbar pillow that comes with as well. Soft velour like  material.... says velvet, but I wouldnt call it a true velvet. Love the way these look!
