Worth it
I have to say first that I didn't purchase this product here, I actually bought it in Kenya where I was living at the time. The price listed here, however, is surprisingly good. The craftsmanship of these pieces is excellent. My ark is one of my favorite display pieces from all of our travels. The fact that the piece is made from Jacaranda is also key as it is a soft wood and easily repopulated unlike the traditional hard woods that are being harvested to excess and almost extinction. So supporting this product is also supporting an environmental initiative for many of the carvers in Kenya which is really quite critical for them at this time.

Beautiful set!
We purchased this set for our church's second Godly Play room (a Montessori-style Christian education program). Last night, I told the story of the Ark & the Flood using this beautiful set. The children (Kindergarteners and 1st graders) were absolutely captivated by the details of the set. I was initially concerned that the hand-carved figures wouldn't stand up to the rigors of little boys, but they are doing quite well! The figures are so pretty that even the wildest of boys treats the animals with appropriate care - so that has help curb the (perhaps inevitable) destruction. I would highly recommend this set for whatever its purpose.
