When I found these on Wayfair I really liked the look and deep texture, but I was a bit apprehensive that the "wrapping" would be crooked (I'm picky about such things) or would have an overall thin/cheap feel.  Not so!  The weave is quite symmetrical and the material is thick and soft.  The taupe is a nice neutral shade with a subtle ingrained pattern - one of those rare fabric colors that seems to go with everything. These stools are adorable and well made, a true win-win!
