Information on the referenced art object:

This rhyton is in the shape of the head of a Lakonian hound. It is black except for the reserved areas for the dog's inner ears and nostrils; a dilute glaze is used for the eyes. On the bowl, in reserve, a satyr is walking to the left; he holds a plate in his right hand and a thyrsos in his left. Accessory decoration on the bowl includes two palmettes and an egg pattern on the rim. Added white is used for some hair (also some dilute glaze), the top and ribbon of the thyrsos, the plate and foot on it, the ground line, and the three plant elements.

Customer photo review of Stormlight Archives HC Box Set 1-4: The Way of Kings, Words of Radiance, Oathbringer, Rhythm of War (The Stormlight Archive)

I’m so unbelievably stoked and happy about both sets the Mistborn and the Storm Light archives hardback books that I got from the reading spa. I just randomly fell across the reading spa in searching for these quality of books and the reading spa has far surpassed my expectations. I am really excited to continue to fill my library with hardcover books from the reading spa for years to come. Great prices, the books are an amazing shape and a brand new and they shipped them to you quickly. Thank you again for being a place I can count on for good quality, hardcover books.!

I didn't know these books existed so I had to have them for my Wizard of Oz book collection.

Store owner replied: Hi Toni! We aim to find special collections! So glad you found us. These are published by a friend who owns a large company abroad! His books are lovely:-) They also have a paperback version I believe... So happy you are happy!

My experience with The Reading Spa was nothing but pleasurable. I ordered the Avatar book set as a gift for my partners birthday. I sent en email to check on shipping and arrival time to see if they could send it out before his birthday. They got back to me right away, said they would send it out as soon as they could, and were very friendly to converse with. There was one book missing that they addressed in our email exchange that hadn’t arrived for them yet. They took the time to send what was there so I could present the gift, and as soon as the other book arrived for them they sent it out immediately. I was able to present my gift on time, and my partner was so thrilled with it all thanks to them. I couldn’t recommend this place more!
