I really like the blue and white bathroom accessories look, and this pattern goes well with pieces I already have. The outer cardboard box was quite crushed, yet the individual boxes where packaged very well! allowing the Item to arrive in good condition. One note, the white is not a true white, but more of an off white and my existing pieces are a true white with blue. I have had the item less than one month, I'm hoping the porcelain will prove to be very durable. Goes lovely in my bathroom.
