Ordered a similar ceramic tree from another company and returned it because of careless hand painting and crookedly placed lights.  This little tree is lovely and carefully painted.  Love the choice of three colors for star at top of tree.  Like the fact that it is battery powered and I don't have to hide electric cord or worry about fire hazard.  Only complaint is that star on top of tree is a bit loose when it is placed, but can be stabilized with additional padding where star fits into tree.
