Great toilet seat. Fits a normal, round toilet.  The color is a rich and dark brown with grain look (makes it look better and not just a flat brown color). It has a coating on it that makes it a bit shiny looking which gives it a classy and expensive look. I have had it now for several months and it has held up great (even with teenagers in the house). The hinges are silver and haven't rusted yet. Assembly was easy and typical for a toilet seat.
