If you're in the market for something superior to the average flimsy metal curtain rod with the cheesy fake finish, you've come to the right place. I have never seen a more beautiful drapery rod. The effect is spectacular. It is truly eye-catching. Yet it is not jarring. It blends well with my decor, creating a natural, relaxed ambiance.
I upgraded to this gorgeous Tuscan rod because I got tired of the cognitive dissonance I experienced every time I turned to admire my beautiful burgundy jewel-toned drapes hanging from those tacky metal curtain rods. (I also ordered the matching double curtain rod bracket, the finials, and the curtain holdbacks.)
If you like what you see here, then you're in luck, because the curtain rod looks exactly as pictured. I was worried the rod might have a fake gilt look to it, but it doesn't. The slight gold tone is very understated. It's true what they say -- you get what you pay for.
Some advice -- measure the diameter of the rod pocket before you purchase the rod because this rod is much thicker and more substantial than the average rod. I believe the diameter runs 1-3/8" or 2".
