Cherry coloured head board, footboard and sides. The headboard and footboard are in good condition but the sides have some damage. (see photos_) This bed had slats at one point but they broke, which is why the sides have some damage. We bought a metal frame to put inside the wood frame, and it has worked well. We have now bought a new bed, so no longer need this wood frame. It fits together easily with two people putting it together. The headboard is quite heavy. We also have a Queen box spring, which is in fair condition if you want it. You must pick up. We live in a third floor apartment building with no elevator.
