I actually purchased this for my son, who just moved into his first apartment. The building is over 100 years old, and his living room has a large, but non-working antique fireplace. He was looking for something decorative (but quirky) to place inside the opening, but was not a "flowers" or "candles" type guy. Enter in the Easter Island dude! It fits perfectly into the space, definitely a conversation starter, and my son thinks it is too cool! Large enough, but not too big. And heavy enough that it won't fall over. #Would work great out in the yard, too.# Thanks Toscano, for making the "unique" available to us!
