I am thrilled with this beautiful piece! It arrived very-well packed, and attaching a few screws took minutes. The workmanship is amazing. Thank you, Senor Rios!

Mexican Customs finally released the product but it took more than three weeks for them to do so. FedEx informed me there would be a $200 peso inspection fee but I was ultimately not charged the fee by Customs. I don't know if this is common practice since the Mexican Custom requirement for wooden items is new and confusing.
