Is this solid black velvet? The word Alpine is throwing me off. And the image appears to have specks? Not sure if it's just lint or what.

It is solid black. Just not a great picture. This is upholstery grade so it is not thick and plush. It is much shorter fibers so it appears more coarse than real velvet. Great product for the price but wouldn't be great for all projects.

It looks like maybe a dark, sort of "bronzy" black to me. Since it sits in my closet, the color was not that important. Just didn't want white.

HI ToyMaker's Daughter, It is a real velvet , but it is a blend it looked great on stage. It has a stretch to it and not the easiest fabric to work with if your not use to stretch fabric. I also found the color was a bit off from picture, but that might have been due to my monitor.

Used like how? Linty? Worn tip? The box it comes in made mine linty. The tip on mine looked kinda weird when I got it and wore down really quickly (like a week) so that it didn't glide anymore. It was weird. The seller is awesome and you can contact them about it.

I'd send it back. It could be old, or melted and re-solidified. It's supposed to be creamy, not grainy.

I think it's somewhere in between a velveteen/plush velvet but it looks really nice. It's a little off white. Hope this helps!

Glad you asked that. I was pissed to open the box and it was chrome outer with black on the middle. Nothing like the picture. If you want I could email you a pic.

This is only a finish, not a stain. Pick up a stain pencil to match at the box store for this problem

It never occured to me, but mine too is not like the images on amazon. I am very happy with mine and recommend it but it does not match the images.

I ordered the same box, yes it is a nice gloss black. It did have some minor dents, but they gave me some money back instead of exchanging it.

hi Kyle D...no, I thought the violin would look like the picture because the wood looks rich and the violin strings looks like it would have a deep sound to it. However, if you haven't bought the violin yet..good.. I would spend a little more money on a good violin that would last you a long time..my mendini is still in the box oh and the strings on the violin are cheap..thank you for asking I hoped I help :) Deanne allen

Mine came in perfect condition. I'd s send it back and ask for another. The one I bought was tan with leopard lining.

This posting was originally for the clear case, it looks like they changed it to black. I would contact iPearl/mCover directly and ask about it, as a quick search on Amazon doesn't have the clear one in stock (there is one by Kuzy, but it isn't the same).

It's polyester but looks like a heavy linen. The black swirls are almost like velvet appliques. It's just as it appears in the pictures. Some said the white was more like ivory but ours is white.

I found another page with reviews where someone else mentioned it only being B&W.; The response was: "I don't know what the person was talking about with the "black and white" images problem was talking about, these images are pretty nice(and in color). Maybe they should send theirs back and buy another one before they're sold out..."Link - http://www.markwielgus.com/amspell/amproduct/jewelry/B000PGRBGA

I'd say the color of the wood is true to what is shown in the picture for mine, except mine have black stain sprayed along the four vertical corners of each post. This ties the color in better with the black upholstery and looks very nice.

What I received was neither black or natural, it was brown and a completely different material and pattern (was interlaced wood, not wicker). It looked good and worked with the decor, so I kept it as returning it would have been too much trouble and I didn't have the time to deal with it. Good luck and hope you like surprises :)
