Does the distressing/antiquing of the white cabinet look like black marks, or like brown antiquing? Not sure black marks/streaks would be attractive?

Definitely not black marks, more like wear marks on the edges. Not really brown antiquing, either, the piece is white.

I love my kitchen island, it is made of good wood and the antiquing is very well done.Does not look like black marks. Very good choice. I have recommended to friends,but sold out when they checked it out.

When I look at them in a good light, they are charcoal grey; almost black. They are mostly on edges where scrubbing and rubbing would remove some of the paint, exposing dark wood below. When I first saw them as I was assembling the island, I thought it was from careless handling. As time went on, I realized that they are mostly the kind of marks you would get over a long period of time; thus, "antiquing". Overall I am very satisfied with all aspects of the island. As far as the color goes, brown would be more accurate but it doesn't bother me.

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.

VERY similar. There are color variations in the stain as the picture indicates that vary enough the cabinet could blend with many finishes. Those areas that appear lighter think would be called a "golden oak" and the areas that appear darker have warm browns to almost a cherry or mahogany appearance especially in the detail work. My cabinet is beautiful and has already gotten many compliments. The way this has been stained gives it a very european olde world look. Hope that helps

Mine is not clear. It is translucent if you hold up to light. But laying on the shelf, it appears a milky white. You do not see the pretty wood grain of your cabinet shelves through it, if that is what you are seeking. I've had mine down for 2 years now, and am satisfied. You sacrifice seeing the wood grain, for protection from water and scratches. There is enough wood grain in the back and sides of cabinet to make up for it.

The one we got was light wood, but I think there was another colored one. I cant remember if it was white or dark brown tho. My daughter is very pleased with the light wood color, as it matches her kitchen cabinets.DZ

It's definately black. The 'distress' marks in the cabinet doors and some edges do come thru just a bit as a reddish brown.

The top and outsides of the cabinet are oak, whereas the shelves, insides and base are black. Very classy and functional.Hope this helps.

Good question! It is NOT white white! I was very disappointed when it arrived & did not match the Graco white crib or white cube organizer I have. I thought it would be ok since another review I read said it was bright white. It is more of an antique white. I took a pic with a white Kleenex brand tissue on top of it for comparison, but I don't see a place on here where I can upload it. The tissue is pretty much the same color as the crib, but the dresser is a much warmer tone. The top is all one piece, no lines or divisions though & it arrived fully assembled. It is a very well made piece of furniture. Good question! It is NOT white white! I was very disappointed when it arrived & did not match the Graco white crib or white cube organizer I have.

Seems like most are answering about what color the interior is. I take the question to be what color is the exterior of the cabinet. While it is of course stainless on the front, it is as the first person replied, dark grey outside the rear cabinet, with a sort of pebble finish. Intended to match stainless. It's OK, but definitely not S.S. if you look closely.

Hello: dark cherry finish - I stained mine even darker to match cabinets and they looks awesome!

yes,... a very dark cherry. I had an antique dresser that I re-stained with dark cherry and after 2 coats it pretty well matches the bookshelf

A deep dark combination of black and brown. It is a beautiful looking cabinet. I give 5 ����863;rating.

The cabinet is made from engineered wood, with a laminate finish. The finish is made to appear "stained", but in reality is probably "printed". It looks very nice still and I'm happy with mine.

I agree with MMK. I think the stain is too orange. It doesn't match my other furniture. However, the chair/stool is a really nice piece and I'm keeping it. I'll just paint it or stand it down and restain it.

Think Cheryl Perkins answer was spot on. We have the black finish on ours and cant even notice.

I've had mine for about a year now and no silverware marks so far. They did her some odd round brown stains though and I have no idea where these come from
