This is a really pretty table. The color is a nice cherry wood although the picture shows a little browner. There are gouges and holes placed throughout the table as if placed with a template. They could have left these off and I think it would have been even prettier. The table is sturdy and solid and the drawer is a decent size. It was fairly easy to put together. It's a nice piece of furniture and it looks nice in my living room between two wingback chairs.
