The trumpeting angels arrived in good shape. They were packed very well.
The color does differ from the photo and the gold is a darker color. My biggest issue with these angels is they do not sit flat enough on my fireplace. One of the legs on both of them is in the air and does not rest on the surface like it is shown in the photo. When they made these they did not make the bottom of it flat and it looks awkward with the legs in the air. I am going to try to make a wedge base and glue it to the bottom so the statues sit flat or to make the figures more stable than what they are. I like how they look on my mantel but I can not give them a 5 star rating because of how they were manufactured. Out of all the items I ordered from Design Toscano these items were my first disappointment.
I love the products they sell, the time frame they are delivered in and for the most part the quality of their products.
