CHEAP nasty fabric. The site shows two taupes available for sale: green taupe and taupe. I purchased the more ivory taupe (called taupe). Do not order based on PHOTOS. The photos are not the actual item. I did email the company before ordering and was told the fabric was linen. The actual item sent to me was a cheap nasty heavy canvas (not linen). The color is a horrible brownish-gray taupe, not an ivory taupe. I tried to return the item because its not as described and it would cost me $65 to return. Its also not as elegant as the photo shows, its just a very cheap ottoman.
