This is a substantial corner rod set. It is very strong and made of quality materials. I give it five stars for that. But I sure wish the photo online had shown better detail. The finials are the style of a 'rubbed oil bronze' process only using black paint instead of bronze. I did not see this in the picture online. The paint left on after rubbing it off makes them look messy as it doesn't completely cover all areas that needed it. There are spots that are still silver and missing the black paint accent. I am going to repaint them myself to help them out and improve their appearance. They have substantial finials. They are a good size so that they show well even with curtains on the rod set.
