It's a beautiful fixture, BUT... it isn't practical. It's pretty in the picture because the handle lines up with the faucet.  That's not real life. My family has it off to one side or another all the time and it doesn't look great. Also, if you touch it with wet hands, it leaves marks all over it! The water just settles on the flat surface every time and doesn't even wipe off easily   .  If I could return it without paying a shipping fee I would, but I might as well keep it and deal with the issues. As for you, fellow buyer, I'd look at another pretty gold faucet !
