I absolutely LOVE the look of this, as it fits in perfectly with my living room decor. However, it is a bit heavier than I had anticipated (I'm sure I didn't look too carefully at the spec details either though... bad habit), so I just opted to add some additional support to mount it on the wall (likely not completely necessary, but just to err on the side of caution), as I have drywall. Nonetheless, gorgeous accent piece!!
