The color in the picture is completely different than the original product.  The original product is more of a dark bronze.  I was looking for more of a gold, as shown in the picture.  The item is much smaller than it looks in the picture, and it just doesn't look 12" in person.  Also, it feels cheaply made.  Very light in weight, even though I guess because it is made of resin.  I am disappointed but I know I can find a friend that will just love it.
