Many, many thanks to all who left reviews on this chair. Based on those, I ordered two.
Changed my whole room from casual to sophisticated. Delivered in two days, great packaging, perfect condition; screwed on the legs & good to go. Not a "curl-up in" chair but so good for someone with back problems...encourages good posture and lends firm support. I'd call the color more a soft ivory with a hint of honey. Just perfect with my Colonial farmhouse style. HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY!
