Just what I had in mind. The red is sort of a brick red but it is fine. The beige is soft and sort or heathered or muted on the chair. It is well made. Went together in a few minutes. Absolutel love this chair. It is a little larger than I thought but that is better. Well made for the price. I got it on sale. If you like the the look go for it it is a lovely chair and a good size one too. I stumbled across it not looking for a red and white chair and I found it and it is really cute.
