The chair itself appears to be well made however, the linen color is far from white. It's more of a dingy yellow/cream. These were ordered for a model home that has cottage white kitchen cabinets and the chairs look like they were a mistake. Also, the quality of the finished paint on the chairs is sub-par. There are obvious brush strokes well beyond what a distressed finish should look like. The design of the chair fits what I was trying to accomplish, but I'm not satisfied with the paint color and finish.
