Love, love this chair. Its elegant and a very addition to a room. Arrived quickly and it was easy to put together although it took some time. Real wood, weathered look. Cons was the color. I needed a gray chair and it was what expected to receive but it is more a dark chocolate brown. I asked some guests for opinions about the color and they agreed it's brown. It is still a beautiful chair. I wish it was grey because brown is not supposed to be part of the color pallet I have chosen to decorate. Debating if I should return it....
