Could anyone who purchased the rust bronze finish help confirm the "color" of the finish, is it really the "deep" rusted look and feel?

Yes, it is. It looks like a bronze color with what I'd call charcoal black running through it. I personally like it because I have a couple small black wrought tables that blend in nice with the set. The set was pretty easy to put together. I did it by myself, but it would have been much easier with a second person. Took about 30 minutes. Was packaged well and all parts were there. There is an extra nut or bolt for each one required.

The one I have looks nickel to me. I have other nickel finishes in my home and it looks just like the other nickel items we own.

Yes, I was under the impression it was a bronze finish, but it was not. It looked more like a grey plastic finish. Sorry. Thank you. Jinny

Truthfully it's lovely bronze color is nice . I would not paint it as the bronze color has a shiny finish. So no don't paint it. I just love it , I am short but it is still comfortable.

It is a blackened bronze. I wish I could post a picture for you. Not solid black but not shiny either.

Actually, it looks to me to be a "distressed" metal using a antique bronze coloring to mimic age. Antique Bronze can look either brown or black depending on the light. The wood on the rocker we got was a bit darker than the picture also. I think the picture may have been manipulated to show more of the detail. (I did refinishing and wood repair in my former life. That's why I sound this way.) So depending on the usage and age you can expect some flaking since it is a thin coating applied for effect. Still, it's built like a tank and if my seat wasn't too big for it's seat, I'd buy more for my place. Actually, it looks to me to be a "distressed" metal using a antique bronze coloring to mimic age.

Mine is more towards the darker (not Black) but when you look at it certain ways its lighter towards the copper. I have the dark bronze fixtures in my bathtub and it looks good with it. I have antique copper sink fixtures and it looks good with that too.

I agree, so it must be a weathered bronze. I'm OK with it because it's not white, we wanted a dark color where we installed ours.

Yes i think so it is showing some signs of light rust stains ... hope that helped

I live on the shore in New England so have my share of rust issues but haven't seen any speck of rust show up on mine yet, granted I've only had it a short time but it's quality built and I really wouldn't expect to see any rust show up.

As I said in my review it's very close, but it's more of a dark burgundy color. Whereas true oil rubbed bronze is more of a dark brown. As long as it's not sitting right next to your fixtures I doubt anyone would notice. I uploaded a picture but not sure if Amazon will let it post, and keep in mind it's a phone pic. http://i.imgur.com/tFylEAf.jpg. Having said all that, I don't regret the purchase. Good deal for the money.

The one that I purchased over a year ago is aged black. No rust color on it at all. I love it!

It is actually more of a matte white powder coat finish. I have had mine for about 6 months and so far no rust. It still looks great.

I'm happy for the owners with no rust but nearly 6-8 pieces that I own have rusting at the top of the design. I took a chance and lost when ordering this set. I feel you're taking a chance as well if you order this set. Good luck!

My faucet is a deeply colored ("antiqued", or "oil-rubbed"), brass. It is not a shiny brass. They're trying to reflect a patina, and there are lowlights and highlights. In very low lighting, when the highlighting is hard to see, it looks dark brown (black?). But, the faucet is definitely NOT painted a flat black color. It is much more a dark rusty color than a black.

I feel it's more copper colored, or actually into a bronze hue, def not red. Also, I had to drill holes in the bottom's because three of the four I bought their drain system got clogged and my plants got root rot. I still love the look and they are outside, so it wasn't a big deal to me.

I would consider it a bronze. Mine was very dark almost dark brown in color. Looks good though.
