"A beautiful piece of artwork!"
I was looking for a unique piece to have beside my leather chair where I read and do needlepoint. Something nice that I could put my things in so the end table wouldnt be so cluttered. It is in the main living area of my home and visible to company. This is the perfect thing and Im proud to show it off! It is a generous size but not awkwardly large. The colors are vibrant without being too much. The carvings are amazing and sharp. You can tell that it is a good quality piece that was made by a true craftsman. I am so very pleased with it! Highly recommended!
