I have these in black and the overall look of these curtain rods is excellent. I feel that they look much more expensive and high end than the price would indicate. The finials are super heavy and very nice looking. I took away a star because on each of the rods that we received the larger end of the rod wouldn't fit into the wall mount. It's too large and we had to bend the wall mount open to get them to fit on the large end. So strange that they wouldn't fit. That said I still really love the look of these and would definitely order them again.
