I bought this to accompany all of the other Croscill Galleria components...pillows, Euro shams, valances, sheets, and 4-piece comforter set. It's all pretty spectacular when combined and it's not too feminine. I try to stay as gender neutral as possible because the guy in my life likes cute moose and bear motifs. (Me? Not so much!) Anyway, the whole ensemble is very plush and welcoming and this pillow is a wonderful part of it. I was surprised to see some glitz, though, (not unhappy, just surprised) because each tassel has a brown, faceted, light-catching bead threaded onto it up to the braiding. The sewn-on square of fabric is a little too shy of the aqua/dusty teal accent color for my taste, but I understand that the square that ended up on my pillow is just my 'luck of the draw' from the cutting table (sigh!). However, the pillow is very well made, has a nice fill and is true to the 18"x18" stated size. The aqua/dusty teal color is actually much less washed-out than my monitor's depiction of it and I'm absolutely fine with that. The remaining colors are a nice combination of chocolate milk, vanilla, dk. cinnamon, dk. chocolate, and creamy-taupe. Yummy! It really is beautiful! I'm quite pleased with my purchase and we love our new bedroom.
