"Beautiful chair"
Ive had this chair for several years and I love it, but I (still) havent found the right spot for it. It is a bit low. I was sent photos of two different colors of wood and leather from which to choose, though I dont recall why. Several people have commented on how attractive it is.

"extremely finely crafted"
The chair is beautiful. A bit low. The ad showed a lighter color wood which I would have preferred.

"Gorgeous"
An excellent piece of workmanship. Its very easy to assemble. Moises provides a few extra pegs just in case. I glued the pegs so they dont fall of accidentally.

"Lovely accent"
The workmanship is superb. This bench is now my favorite piece of furniture. I use it every day as I get ready in the morning. It is a wonderful focal point in my decor. Friends have even described it as a throne, its so lovely. Gracias, Sr. Álvarez!

"Adorable and lovely."
Beautiful handcrafted leather on the sides of the table as well as the top makes this piece very special. The contrast between the darker leather and the lighter wood adds to its interest. The drawer pulls are of good quality. The arrival of this purchase made my day and continues to give pleasure daily.
