Oh well. It ended in disappointment and I'm planning to send it back if shipping isn't too crazy. They say roughly $15 from the US but surely that is TBD when I get to the PO.
First though, the customer service was amazing. It shipped the next day and arrived ahead of something from the US I ordered days before. It came packaged beautifully. The quality is top notch. 10/10 for the company.
But...the color was the disappointment. It is such a dull navy that I would probably call it dark grey or slate. Not nearly as vibrant as the online picture. When I showed my DH he said "that's grey" and asked if they shipped me the wrong one. No...they don't have one called grey and the black one is on a white background so it's not that. It just isn't the color I was enticed by from the online picture. Also, there are distinct stripes in the pattern where the background color is much lighter. These looked like subtle gradations but are not subtle at all.
Thank you all for putting up with my obsessing over it, and sorry that I can't report it ended happily. But, learned from Angie...Next!
