This oiece is just lovely!! The rope detailing is very nice - just a touch of fanciness, but doesn't take away from the contents. I have several generations of dishes from both sides of the family - I have this curio filled with the pressed glass, cut glass and other "crystal" and it shows them off just right! Delivery was great - we kept posted every step of the way, and it even came earlier than we were first told. Thanks again, Wayfair!!
