Its so much cooler in person than the photos even do justice, and as a bonus, its mostly real wood which gives a great air of authenticity and a great smell. I am so pleased with it. The package got pretty much destroyed in shipping because it is so heavy, and a few of the pieces were nicked and chipped as a result, but they are hardly noticeable so Im keeping it. Be prepared to spend at least 4 hours building it. If you can, spring for the assembly as its a real beast to put together. Pictured with the Belz armchairs also from Wayfair.
