The shape-size and design were perfect. The workmanship and quality was very poor. The seam under the handle was lumpy and discolored. My intention was to place the vases on the center of my bar. All sides showing. I returned the set and was asked to pay half of the return shipping cost on defective items. I ordered a second set in hope that this set would be different. It was not. If you plan to place the vases in an area that will not show the defects or you like the look of imperfect design or if you are ok with paying return shipping cost if the vases do not meet your expectations buy them.
