Mighty Fine, a very refined look. With a console where you see a lot more fabric a quality one makes a big difference. I have some sets I have used as close to original or the original cloth, others I have created my own look.
My first set ever I used a piece of left over reddish upholstery as a table set with only a few inches across the speaker it was not bad, hey I was maybe 12, it was all I had. 
Good luck with that set, it will be one you will not part with. Maybe half my radios have some "reason" they can't be traded or sold, the first of this type, given to me by family, a certain friend, as an accumulator you learn to rationalize. I hope I am no the only one.
