More beautiful in person than the photo shows.  It looks flat and dull. But it is lifelike, glittered snow-tipped, with five ornaments not 3. Looks good in day light when the lights are off.  And it is 1/2 the price of one on a popular (Grandinroad=expensive) site and its much prettier, more decorative and 4 inches bigger.  So, I ordered another one!! Love it.
