I ordered Jak' "Earth and Sea" plate a few weeks before Christmas, knowing it was backordered and not expected before the holidays (that was ok...it was not a gift). Imagine my surprise when it was delivered on Christmas Eve, weeks ahead of the expected date. The plate was absolutely stunning, the colors rich and beautiful. Our Christmas guests were very taken with it, as it was displayed prominently in the living room. I am so very pleased with this purchase, and the extra effort to complete and ship it ahead of schedule. I will definitely be back soon to purchase more of your lovely work. Thank you!
