Slight damage when it arrived here but it was on the back where no one would see it. I like the colour and am currently using it as part of a Christmas display above my fireplace mantle. Did not buy it to become Christmas décor but it looks good there for now. I can see where some people would be disappointed with the inner circle closest to the clock face being a different colour. That is not easy to see in the on-line pictures but was mentioned in other reviews. I like it but might not have chosen it at a store if I had seen it in person.
