They are just the right size - not too large so they don't take over the wall and they'll balance a large picture or mirror nicely. I used them on either side of a very large picture over my buffet in the dining room with and it completed the look perfectly.  I added a light colored candle for a little pop of color and it was good to go! It doesn't show up very well in the picture, but the distressing is really nice, too. The colors are a soft neutral.  If you're looking for a subtle,, distressed look, this is it!
