“A work of utilitarian art!”

You can set a glass down on any old thing, but these coasters are little works of art, each one beautifully designed and crafted. The design and colors are eye catching. The box that they are contained in is admirable on its own. This is a wonderful detail for my living room. Once again, thank you to the artist, Mohammad, for the beautiful work.
