Exactly as I pictured! It is a beautiful muted, light wood. The details are gorgeous and not too rustic. I love the pedestal detail, it’s chunky and authentic looking. Table is very sturdy but not too terribly heavy. We plan to occasionally use this table scooted towards the window seat, so I was happy it’s not too heavy to move with ease. I requested the assembly with delivery, so I can’t speak to the ease of assembly. I will say that service was great! Super professional, gave me very accurate and timely schedule of arrival, polite and efficient!
