This piece look more like a piece of art rather than just a wall decoration.  For the price you really can't go wrong.  The flock of birds creates a relaxing vibe which I used in my bedroom above the headboard.  Since this piece is 3 dimensional and sticks out a few inches from the wall, it works well with ambient lighting to play with the shadows created.  I had trouble deciding between the dark black option versus this gold option.  I'm glad I chose the gold since it really looks great in the daylight.
