This piece looks great in our room!!  I did have to take a star down though because something was off and one of the short screws would not go into the hole.  It wasn't enough to end back, as I don't think this is going to fall apart or anything.  Another ding also because this would not attach to the metal frame we have.  So right now, it's just standing up on its on between the bed and wall.  But again, looks great!  When you first open box, it looks more like black metal pained yellow. But once it's up in your room, it has a more gold look.
