The picture doesn't show it well since the light is low but it's actually blue. I just checked the seat cushions and thankfully they are the same on both sides. I did pay the extra to have the service that will come in and clean it if anything happens.

I have a pouf that I'd been propping my left leg on with the previous sofa. My leg isn't as elevated but at least it's not dangling if I have the pouf there.
