I have to say, this does look much better than my last artwork I had in my kitchen. It lays nicely on the wall against the kitchen wall above our table, wall color is Sherwood green by ben moore. The piece is much lighter than what I expected...it's not as solid. but looks solid when on the wall. no one has commented on it yet; but having a party on Saturday so i'll try and update my comments; but who cares; I love it and it looks great. wish it could have been a bit bigger. 

Pros: unique, lightweight
Cons: metal is a bit fragile; careful when mounting to wall
