I just wanted to send a personal thank you. The crate arrived in Denmark the other week safe and sound and was beautifully constructed and packed. The gallerist sent me an email about how impressed he was with the quality of the entire packaging and meticulous arrangement of the paintings. A huge thank you for accommodating us on the short notice and being easy to work with and professional.
