Veneer wood, Comes with a faux leather world map, and it was made in China. Sturdy desk set.

Particle board but pretty sturdy and feels like wood. Shipper dropped the top of my desk and crushed the corner of it, which is the only reason I was able to tell it wasn't wood. Otherwise, it looks and feels like wood to me. They shipped me a new top immediately and I'm quite happy with the desk (other than the fact that the file drawer stopped closing completely after a few days. Feels like it gets out of track or that track bent, so I leave it open a few inches.

Not sure what the top is made of however I have had my desk for over a year and have had everything from craft projects to visitors suitcases on it and has held up well. I also use it daily with my laptop always with a glass of ice tea, sometimes with a coaster, sometimes not.

I received the white finish desk and it was made out of particle board. But it feels to be very well made. I am enjoying it.

It is a dark cream color with maroon design. It looks old-fashioned. It really is a gorgeous desk and chair, and very well made. I was surprised at how beautiful it is, and how well made it is, for the price. The top of the desk has a map (feels like leather ... I'm not an expert on materials) as part of its design, and it is gorgeous.

Hi Renee I bought this desk and it is just gorgeous!!!! It is two toned dark espresso wood an a cherry tone trim. FYI they do not offer in home delivery because it is one solid 400lbs desk that comes as one piece in a huge crate on a palette. I had such an issue because they told me it could be delivered into the home but three delivery companies later they said garage delivery only so just know you will have to hire a independent company to bring indoors and it is so big if you don't have French or double doors it will not fit through any single door and no one could bring it up stairs. If you live in a ranch and have double doors it is well worth the money!!! Hi Renee I bought this desk and it is just gorgeous!!!! It is two toned dark espresso wood an a cherry tone trim.

Yes... as it's not real wood, it has a wood stain photo finish (Examples here https://www.google.com/search?q=wood+photo+finish&rlz;=1T4GGNI_enUS570US570&tbm;=isch&tbo;=u&source;=univ&sa;=X&ei;=YJdRU9_6Kbi_sQTGgIKQBA&ved;=0CCcQsAQ&biw;=1536&bih;=702)... looks just like the side you see in the photo. By the way, it's a great desk for the price... I think you'll be pleased with it.

It is a fake wood-grain laminate, but it's so dark you can barely see the wood-grain. The laminate is good though if you ever spill anything on your desk, easy clean up and doesn't ruin the wood. This is a pretty heavy desk, and I've liked it so far (had it for about 5 months now).

The desk is exactly as pictured. The wood appears to be a type of medium dark oak and the glass has a clear smokey tint. The sliding keyboard drawer operates very smoothly. It is an absolutely beautiful desk! I'm very happy with it.

My desk is pretty much the color in the photo. Click on the picture of the desk to enlarge it. The desk has a very pretty wood grain pattern with some lighter and darker areas in the wood. I feel it's a color that would blend in with most any other wood pieces a person has in the same room with the desk. I am very happy with this desk. I will say one other thing about it. The desk is not easy to assemble for one person. It probably took me 6 hours + to assemble it on my own, and at my age, that was not an easy task. Advice: have a buddy to help.

Since I am not an expert on this subject, I would say that the desk is more particle board than composite paneling. That would be my best guess though. I am sorry I cannot help you further. They describe the item as Cherry finish wood. All I can tell you is that it is very nice.

Not at all anything leopard-like! I agree that it's just the wood grain looking overly pronounced in the picture. It's really a nice looking desk.

I would say the table is made of a composition wood painted. It was easy to put together -- just attach the four legs. It is just what I wanted for my lap top, but I would not recommend it for heavy use. It was worth what it cost!

Hello, this particular computer desk is made of solid wood. Hope this answers your question. Thank you!

It IS solid wood, but it's predominantly a light wood over which a dark veneer has been applied. It's sturdy but with four legs and no drawers, it's not as solid as a desk would be. Still, I'm sitting at mine that I've had for a year, right now and I like it just fine. I use it every single day - just not for real heavy stuff like a heavy monitor or something like that.

the wood is a compressed type with a coating overlay to make the desk look like real wood. The color shown is very close to the actual color. A light colored wood, that is not a cherry wood color but a lighter color of brown.
