These mirrors are an exceptional value. The workmanship is quite nice, and the few imperfections are simply due to the fact that they are handmade, which only adds to their charm. They make perfect gifts, but I guarantee you'll be wanting to keep one for yourself! I highly recommend these mirrors.
I was excited to see this product and completely disappointed when it arrived. All mirrors have gross flaws. The beading looks like a child covered the mirror in glue and threw beads towards it. Patterns are off centered, beads are misplaced or missing, and the over all quality is very poor. These are not worth the price. I can not figure out how they got so many good reviews. I am returning them promptly.
This mirrors are very cute and look great for small gifts and favors. They come packed very well in individual sachets coordinated with the mirrors colors. the finishing in the mirrors is not the best but is nice and they look durable.
I usually like to find gifts that are a little out of the ordinary. These mirrors are so pretty!! I bought two sets and will use them for add on gifts, stocking fillers, and for small gifts where you want to remember someone's kindness, but not spend alot of money. There are some small beads that look scattered, but I think that was done by the laquor process, not the artist. Recipients would not notice that at all. I'm very pleased with them, and the bag they each come in!!
