I purchased the 18-inch sculpture, and I am so happy that I was patient and waited for this to come back in stock. It is really lovely, even prettier than the picture, I think, and is just the right look for our very modern living room.  Although I would love to place this piece on a table in a more central location in the room, I've placed on the fireplace mantle, safely out of the way of our very high energy Jack Russell puppy.  The sculpture was packaged extraordinarily well - so well, in fact, that I can't imagine how it could ever arrive anywhere damaged.  Great piece - thanks, Wayfair!
