The Orchid Jewelry Tree certainly exceeded my expectations.  It is well made, trendy and functional. The overall size pleasantly surprised me, it measures 15" high and has 12 buds for hanging. The leaf shaped base measures 4"w x 6"l x 1.5"h and is deep enough to hold items without rolling out. The base is weighted and is much sturdier than it looks. The base also has a velvet type fabric on the bottom to prevent sliding and protect furniture. The color is what I would call a matte gray and the base is black. It looks like its made from metal but is actually a sturdy plastic material. Overall a nicely made organizer and certainly not limited to hanging jewelry!
