Is the color true, pewter? Some reviews state it is more gold. And did the manufacturer change the too short screws?

The color is pewter and I had enough screws, but on the seat cushion is flattening over time on it. So someday I will have to replace it doesn't hold it shape.

The color is a dark outer color. Mine do not look gold. I replaced the short screws with just a little longer ones on mine, but after you site on the stool and press down the material on the edge they fit fine.

mine is black with gold specks I love mine I wish I would have ordered a frame that was longer to anchor the footboard, I have mine free standing right now the head board is great it looks wonderful.

It does not appear gold or yellow or brown. It is a clear, brushed silver or nickel tone. I have loved it and seen it on many decorating pages and photos since I purchased it.

The screws that I received were short enough for the 5/8" thick desk top, but I did not think that they were large enough to securely fasten the keyboard drawer to the desk top that I had, especially in particle board. I believe that I used either No. 8 or No. 10 size, 1/2" long sheet metal screws.

It is deep and I would call it gold not yellow. I feel it can match up with any color furniture . After 2 years I love this piece just as much!

The pewter is more of a light greyish, with hints of tans and dark gray. The nailheads are a silver. I love my headboard. It goes well with alot of decor.

There is a lot of gold and my walls are a off white and have curtains that match. Just went in the guest room to check it. If a pale yellow would be ok but not if a bright yellow but that is me. If you look at the picture at the left the back ground is like a gold yellow That looks lovely. I love the set it is very nice and made well. DAC

Mine was perfect in every way, but I got the one without the "gold". Beautiful craftsmanship.

I love mine BTW. As for the sturdiness...it handles my 285lbs just fine while I am sitting on it while putting on or taking off my shoes. It depends on what kind of lighting it is in, of course. I have LED bulbs mixed with natural light in my foyer where this is located. To me, it appears there are two shades of burgundy in the pattern. A majority is a darker burgundy, lacking a purply tone and probably best described as rust tone burgundy, but still "rich" and the other is closer to red but still burgundy. So, in summary, the burgandy is a rich rust burgundy as opposed to the ones that have more of a purple tone.

Yes, the finish in the picture is pretty close. The picture might be a little over exposed, so the actual color is a tiny bit darker than pictured (but it's close).

No it's not a sure thing. There seems to be 2 different color schemes and I've gotten them both. One is the bronze that's pictured and the other is a dark silver with a reddish-bronze line on the edge. Side by side the differences are quite apparent.

My threads are in storage ..they are very much as pictured. The numbers are in the 500's I do not know DMC system. I usually buy sufficient thread for a project and buy it by sight so the numbers mean very little to me. There is, I know a very soft tan and what I would call gold but there are several yellow's....some very light tints and some closer to the soft tan and those I would class as gold. However, if you are looking for a metallic appearance there is none.

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.

So sorry to be tardy in answering your query. I love these barstools, craftsmanship great, price excellent, but, no, they are not pewter. They are more an antique bronze. You sure could purchase a can or two of the new Rustolium spray paints, and easily alter the color before you attach the seats, if you are amenable to a little self-adjustment to the color!

I only got the classic bronze so I can't compare. The classic bronze is quite dark however. But as another reviewer noted, the term "gunmetal gray" would not be inappropriate. It is a very dark gray, almost black, but it doesn't really have the warmth of tone you would expect from bronze. Others have also noted the red ring on the ceiling plate and that is also correct. If you stare up at the fixture from directly underneath, it is quite noticeable. But if you look from a more comfortable position across the room it looks like the highlight that was intended. I doubt that anyone other than the person who did the installation would notice! I only got the classic bronze so I can't compare. The classic bronze is quite dark however.

This fixture says bronze but is actually an odd silver/pewter color with some orange/bronze highlights in a few spots. Not what I expected.
