This is a high quality piece. It's made very well. It was hard for me to mount on the wall by myself at the end of a hallway because it weighs almost 7 pounds. Since we get plenty of earthquakes here in my area, it was important to me that I anchor it to the wall very securely, so I used two wall anchors on the top and one near the bottom middle. There are no hanging instructions so I had to wing it. It is mounted securely now and I have peace of mind to enjoy its beauty every time I walk down the hallway. It is an investment piece I'll enjoy  for many years to come.
