I purchased two of these to place on either side of a painting.  The are large and will anchor the painting (also large) very well.  The antique effects on the metal looked "off" in my opinion  and was not the weathered/ aged look I was hoping for but more of dabbing on some copper colored paint here and there.  Minor complaint though- - as once hung I will likely be the only person to notice a little detail like that.  I have not hung them yet, however, because they are heavy sconces and they unfortunately did not come with any hardware/ sheet rock anchors, etc to actually mount the sconce.  Overall, I  am happy with this purchase.
