The online photo of the product looked very nice.  Unfortunately, when the "table" arrived it was of very cheap construction and materials.  It was very over priced considering the quality of this item - it is more representative of a plant stand, not a side table.  Metal isn't hammered - it is a pre-formed pressed finish.  Online photos look like brass but it is just a cheap hollow metal.  Do not buy this item unless it is discounted to about $40.
