The Sculpture i received was a very dark color, like dark brown, and i thought this was going to be more "goldish" I have some other bronze pieces and I compared colors, and this one was way way darker and has no shine at all, I wanted it to place it on an espresso color shelf but there is no way i could put it there cause you don't even get to see the sculpture. Im returning it,  but it still pretty, if you have a "light" color place where to put it, go for it!
