This is an absolutely beautiful clock.  The colors are darker than shown which is better for me.  I am giving it four stars instead of five because the wood is super thin and mine arrived with about a 3" crack.  I just used a glue gun and fixed it but just be aware and treat it very gently.  I also had to bend the arms a bit so they wouldn't hit each other.  Now that its up on the wall where it won't be bothered it is a really nice focal point and looks perfect with the olive paint I have.
