David Octavius Hill's early photograph of the great cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle — the vast medieval gun on the ramparts with a Royal Scots soldier standing by, caught in the soft sepia of the first days of the calotype. Woven into a plush cushion those warm browns turn tactile and quiet. A characterful, historic piece for the corner of the sofa or a reading chair.

In Good Company

This cost less than the two other options I was weighing and it beat both of them. Everything that makes The Cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle worth looking at is still there up close. The order confirmation, the shipping notice and the delivery all lined up as promised. Support answered my email the same afternoon with an actual answer. I could not be happier with how this turned out.

Six months in, it looks the same as the day it came out of the box. Scale was my worry, and The Cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle got exactly the room it needed at this size…

Solid quality, slow delivery

The soft gray came out a shade warmer than my screen showed, and it still works in the space. At four stars I would still say The Cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle does what I hoped in this room. It looks better in daylight than under warm bulbs.

Mixed feelings

I do not regret it and I would not do it again. Seeing The Cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle in person after all this has been a little deflating. It is fine, and fine is all it is.

We hear you on the price. If it is not earning its place, we will take it back within thirty days, no questions asked. - the Slow Objet team

This is the third thing I have ordered here and the quality has been consistent every time. The detail in The Cannon Mons Meg at Edinburgh Castle came through far better than I expected at this size. It reached Portland in four days, which never happens with anything I order. Order it, you will thank me.
