This comforter set is exactly as pictured and very beautiful.  The sides are long enough to cover the box springs, so the Queen size fits my queen my bed well. I am not disappointed that I did not order the King.  I am pleasantly surprised at the quality especially compared to the price.  The comforter is soft and thick; appears and feels very luxurious.  It was well folded inside the packaging with very few wrinkles to deal with.  The decorative throw pillows remained fluffed and were ready to use right out of the package.  I definitely recommend this set to those interested in purchasing.
