Placed this above the bed in our girl's room and looks whimsical, feminine and regal all at once. It's a very large plague indeed so check the dimensions before purchasing. The colour is true to the website photo - nice redish-bronze look. It's quite heavy so be sure to secure properly and a bit awkward, so more than 1 person is recommended for hanging. One great feature is that it lays quite flat to the wall. Just what this room needed. Not disappointed.
