I have several pieces made from Sheesham wood. All are dark which is what I prefer. This piece, which arrived very well packaged, looks more like a honey colour which would have matched my oak doors. I spoke to one of your agents before purchasing who advised it was likely to be darker than the picture. It is however it is still lighter than my other pieces which is what I wanted in that particular bedroom. It also has a lovely sheen which reflects the light. A very sturdy little bench which I am using between twin beds as a bedside cabinet in a small bedroom. It looks pretty and unusual. Very happy with my purchase.. Anonymous. Wed Jul 10 2024
