Everyone who walks in asks about it. Everything that makes A Falnama Angel special survived the reproduction. The whole thing feels like it was made by people who care about it. My partner is hard to impress and even he was taken with it.
My husband spotted this months ago and I finally gave in. Everything that makes A Falnama Angel special survived the reproduction. Don’t think twice, just order it.
It looks like something out of a museum shop, in the best possible way. The clarity of A Falnama Angel makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday. It has made me a repeat customer already.
The item is passable and the experience of getting it was not. The trim is uneven, noticeably wider on one side than the other. The print feels light and insubstantial in the hand.
I am so sorry this reached you in that condition, and it is not the standard we hold ourselves to. Email us with your order number and we will send a replacement or refund you in full, whichever you prefer. Ines
This is the best thing I have bought for the house all year. I bought this for A Falnama Angel and got far more than I paid for. Perfect from start to finish.
Thank you for coming back for another one. Repeat customers are the best compliment we get.
