Absolutely gorgeous, high-quality table and solid wood!  It has a smooth finish and the Sheesham wood grain color variance is eye-catching.  We've received a ton of compliments.  Looks more expensive than it is & was easy to assemble with 2 people.  The only thing we didn't expect was that there is an odd length in between the legs where chairs push under.  You either need super narrow chairs to fit two on the long side, or one larger substantial chair on each side, like we did. Other than that, we love our new table!
