The price for a king headboard was unbelievable and the fact it would ship to us for free was even better! The headboard is a dark matte camel color, not really brown but favors more dark golden camel. Canvasy texture. Even though it is a feminine vintage shape the fabric it's color is more masculine/rustic really give it a good neutral feel for a Master Bedroom. It's very fairytale - like in my opinion. It's pretty lightweight and was super easy to put together. Took less than 45 minutes. If this is for the upstairs I recommend taking the box upstairs before opening and putting together.
