I was pleasantly surprised by how tall it was, the finish is beautiful and the shape is so unique, it is definitely a focal of my space. As a new designer, who is learning our personal spaces are never truly finished, it was nice to receive an item I absolutely love. As soon as the space is finished I will update the photo but until then, what else does a snow day require than a cup of hot chocolate, a good book, ugg boots and my new ramona end table.
