Small and detailed.
This is a nice addition to a library shelf. Size is about as big as a grapefruit. Nice detail and solid white. Shipped securely in styrofoam.

Purple Purple!!
Size: 9ft, Color: Dark Purple, Size: 9ft, Color: Dark Purple
Looks great!! I would say the color is like Crayola marker purple. It was easy to assemble straight out of the box. And a perfect size for my six person patio table. The weight of the fabric seems of high-quality and thickness. I would recommend as it seems to be a good value for the price point..

Vibrant backyard umbrella
Size: 9ft, Color: Lake Blue
The umbrella does its job, it tilts so you can position the umbrella to block the sun at all hours. The colors are vibrant and fabric is decent quality, I bought the turquoise this time and dark blue in the past, the fabric keeps cleans. The umbrella isn't heavy, easy to maneuver. This was a replacement for our previous umbrella which broke at the tilt joint, after a very windy day when we forgot to close it, but it lasted over a year and a half so no complaints there.
