The gold tone is an extra-orange-y brass-tone which especially matters if it’s near other goldwarm metal finishes. The powder-coating or whatever the finish is on the frame is crude - mottled, scuffed and bumpy so that the packing material is stuck to the frame, including some  plastic that looks almost melted on. 

A few of the circles are bent and misshapen... and still... the idea of this frame - the overall design is cool. Wayfair customer service was accommodating to the point that I may keep the
 mirror, sand and spray paint the frame and enjoy it from afar.
