We love the map and the fact that you can still slightly see the wood grain through the dark blue. The only thing we wish were different is that the beveled edge be visible from the front rather than the back. There wasn't an image or sample on the website of the beveled edge, so it was just an assumption that we'd be able to see it without having to turn it backwards. We were hoping it would show a bit like a "frame" and that we'd be able to see more of the wood since we ordered the dark blue. We wouldn't have spent the extra money on the beveled edge had we known it wouldn't actually be visible from the front. Other than that, we're happy with how it turned out!
