The customer service here answered me on a Sunday. The clarity of Rustam and Sohrab makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday. 🙂
My order came a day early, which never happens. The smaller elements of Rustam and Sohrab are clear enough to reward a close look. My only real gripe is the shipping charge on top of the price. Our winters are long and dark, and this has made the room feel warmer. Nearly perfect, and I am not complaining.
The colors read warmer in person and I actually prefer that. It captures Rustam and Sohrab well enough that I stopped looking for a better one. The tracking updated at every step, which I always appreciate. My only real gripe is the shipping charge on top of the price.
I was expecting good and got great. My guests ask about Rustam and Sohrab before anything else in the house. It went straight into the upstairs hallway and has not moved since. Our farmhouse has a lot of empty space and this filled some of it nicely.
This is the best thing I have bought for the house all year. The detail in Rustam and Sohrab holds up with my face inches away. It fits the kitchen like it was made for the space. My only regret is not ordering sooner.
