Our apologies to Cleveland, but this beauty is a tribute to the 2016 World Series Champions Chicago Cubs! In the case of Cubs Win It, upright white standards exhibit a deeper blue flush at the base. The wide, graceful, cup-shaped falls showcase a peacock blue hue that lightens at the center, accentuating the orange beards. Lively falls undulate with their playful ruffling and swirling.
