Luckily I got this item on sale, even so I feel like I paid too much considering the quality is very cheap because of the poor paint quality. The white leaves on the branch are created with white paint and some of the paint dripped on the other leaves on mine. There are also some areas that look like the branches have been scratched or poorly painted. The wall decor is also very light weight, which makes it seem like cheap quality, but on the plus side, it should make it easy to hang up on the wall. In the end, I'm keeping the item because I think I can fix some of the paint on it and it is the right size and shape for the space where I planned on placing it.
