This canister is very beautiful it is a true red and I love love the different designs on them. The seal is pretty good. The canisters was well protected so no damage would be done to it. I live in Canada so when I order this from the Wayfair I know I will get what I paid for.. They stand behind what they sell. Everything I have ordered from this site and I have ordered quite a bit is as pretty in person as it is on there site
