I ordered Desmond the dragon to "oversee" our Medieval themed wedding. He was perched at the top of the trellis that we were married under; looking very wise and regal! I looked at many, many dragons to perform this task, and Desmond stood out to me. He was the one! He is absolutely gorgeous and beautifully detailed. Well worth the price. It seems that he is very popular as well, because I ordered him in May, but he was on back order, so I didn't get him until July. I'm not complaining, because I ordered him with plenty of time to spare before the wedding. We are very happy with our purchase, and we will definitely be buying more Toscano creations in the future.
