Well, it wasn't entirely true in the first place. It definitely is quality and not cheap, but it also balanced price and materials with expedience when I chose a seller. I just really wanted a set, after watching those films with Edgar…
Regardless, the vestibule I find myself in is lit and scented much different from the ground floor. It also opens up into a sort of gallery, with art of tasteful forest landscapes from this region leading toward the foyer.
