I had been looking for one more "tree" themed piece for my living room when I ran across the "Tree of Life" in your catalog. A little pricey but it was just what I was looking for. When I received my order I was impressed with how well it had been packaged for shipment and did not experience any damage that other reviewers had to deal with. All I can say is that the picture in the catalog doesn't really do justice to this piece when you actually see it in person. I'm very satisfied with this purchase and would recommend this item to friends with no hesitation. The only quibble I had was it's a little difficult for one person to hang by themselves but I managed it.
