I got this headboard in the dark purple color and it came looking just like the picture!  It assembled onto my queen size bedframe perfectly.  The material is great and every time people see it they definitely think it is much pricier than it actually was.  In addition it was shipped quickly and packaged so that no damages occurred to the headboard except a small dip/ dent on the top but it is barely noticeable.  Highly recommend this product!
