Does this look black in certain lights or can you see the brown/ warm tones? I’m using this over a black dinner table with a room that has grey/ white tones.

Hello, thanks for asking about the St. Louis 5-Light Chandelier in Antique Style Brown. The finish is a rich, dark brown. However, in low lighting or from a distance it could look black. Please refer to the close-up image below. You can click on it to enlarge it. I hope this is helpful to you!
