These chairs are beautiful and look much more expensive than they are! The color is a rich navy blue. Assembly was very easy; it took me less than an hour to put two chairs together by myself. The only slight concern I have is that the cushion is more rounded than it appears in the photos, which means it may flatten out over time with heavy use, but we don't use the chairs that often so I don't think it'll be that big of a concern. Definitely recommend these chairs for the price!
