This piece is GORGEOUS.  
My only complaint is that the assembly is a bit of a pain.
It takes two people to assemble this small piece because of how awkward it is to get to the back to screw the "heel" to the base.  You really need at least three hands for that, not because it's heavy, just because it's awkward; I felt like a contortionist trying to tighten the screws as my business partner held the pieces together.
It was certainly worth the trouble, though.  It turned out to be a beautiful addition to our photography studio.
