I think they are very similar, is it sheesham rosewood? There are 2 types of sheesham iirc, the rosewood is the lighter of the two. Acacia is very similar to the sheesham rosewood.

Clear that up did I?? Grin

Lol! Sort of...... I have oak as well.... Will it clash? Or go?

I think it will go, they are all similar 'shades', and I think a bit of variety between the wooden items adds intrest. It moves away from the 'identical Argos' type feel.

My DM has an oak kitchen, and sheesham end tables and another wood dining table and it all goes Smile

Yes, that's exactly what I don't want! Matchy matchy argossy! Hmmm...... Not sure my Walls are warm enough, very cool colour but can change those I suppose! Thanks that was v helpful
