This is an amazing artistic, gift for my daughter who recently graduated college. I wanted to present her with a unique present to honor the hard work involved in getting her college degree. This gift set met all my criteria of a lifetime to remember all the agonizing hours involved with getting this certificate. We always share tea, but now each occasion will take us right back to her journey, the dedication of the artists involved in creating this exquisite set saw their expertise as did my child.
