I love it! This statue has delicate and perfect proportions and is what I was looking for for a bedside table. The item was well package and was received in a timely manner. Highly recommend shop.

Haha!. I didn't pay close enough attention to the description. My mistake! It was MUCH smaller than what I was expecting, but again my mistake. The sculpture itself is beautiful. It's so beautiful . . . wish it was bigger! :)
