    Wow. Beautiful and many pictures were provided so the pictures presented an apt description. Packaging was adequate for the journey. Shipping seemed higher but within reason and the embroidery exquisite so the shipping price worthwhile. Given the expertise and time required for this intricate piece this was a good value. I have not find any flaws due to age just a beautiful piece preserved.
