I will never buy anything from them again. Choose for yourself but read on!
A beautiful and fast website to order everything
--> the customer is king!
Very long delivery time
--> customer becomes a prince
Delivery incomplete
--> customer is no longer a nobleman
Returning delivery
--> very unclear which routing and after 3 emails finally clear
They actually do not want to deliver
--> many discount proposals
Return and then your money back actually total discouragement so now everything except customer
--> costs nl 50.00! Just about more than the value.
All in all, treated like anything but a customer at the door and at the end of the journey!

Color quality
February 8, 2024

I have ordered two tapestries. One was fine, the other was all wrong with the color. I ordered the one that is a copy of a medieval tapestry with a unicorn and a maid in costume. It is a very fameous tapestry over the whole world. I was thrilled (really) to see such a thing available to the mere phesants of the world. When i got it, instead of the maroon color that is on the picture on their website, it was a harsh color that was yellow orange. I ordered it to place in a room, where maroon was essential. I kept it because i thought it would work out elsewhere. I remember there was a qualified statement about color but i took a change. This is the second note so i know no one there has taken a look at maybe having their printers checking color accuracy so the whole purchase is very rewarding for anyone who buys one. Maybe someone could check to see if anyone saw my review sent maybe two weeks before this review. Thanks for checking and maybe checking to see that what is advertised on their website would be greatly improved.

Serietà
February 6, 2024

Molto corretti nelle spedizioni e nel servizio offerto, forse la qualità dei materiale lascia un po a desiderare, ma certamente non si puo avere tutto a questi prezzi.
