It is a stunning piece, great for an award or a milestone gift. Ours arrived as ordered and looked flawless. I highly recommend it!

100% Professional!
We ordered this for our Pastor who is retiring after 13 years. It looks amazing, professional, flawless, could not be happier. They were able to put our church's logo on it and alter it to our specifications. ON TOP of all that, it arrived two days sooner than predicted. I highly recommend this site. This will not be the last thing we order from here!
