This is a gorgeous desk for a new office.  It has a great airy open look in a small room.  Color of wood is slightly more reddish than what is pictured---I was thinking it would be more of a pecan color, but it definitely has cherry tone.  Still it's beautiful, well made, looks like it was much more expensive.  The top of the desk is beautiful.   I paid Wayfair to assemble it and take away the packaging which was very helpful.
