The star of the piece is the gold styrene panel, which goes beautifully with the emperor moth fabric.

Still waiting for it to arrive
Hi Ali, according to the tracking information attached to your fullfilment email the couriers estimate a delivery date of 02 July. That is a bit longer than I would expect...possibly they are dealing with high volume of deliveries at the moment?
