I really like it but I wish the center was a shade different color than the rest for it to stand out. It was very well packaged.

This sculpture is lovely and looks exactly as shown. However, the seahorses nose broke off the first time I picked it up. I was able to glue it back together, but its very fragile.

This arrived in record time and is absolutely gorgeous! The picture does it no justice. Thank you Somyot, you are truly gifted and I love the idea of you recycling instead of contributing to pollution.
