I bought this to begin to decorate my husband's dental waiting room - First, I bought a BEAUTIFUL sofa table from O-Stock, then I bought this for the wall above it. I have it only resting on the sofa table, now wall - mounted, yet (didn't have drill bits with me), and in ONE DAY, we have received MANY Compliments on it, Inquiries about where we found it, and everything has been POSITIVE about this wall art. I just may order another, for our home, too! All the "jewlels", which are stained abalone shell, are quite lovely in effect, and the (ooch! the hand work!) attachments of each, seem to be secure and strong. ORDER this wall sculpture, because it is LOVELY, even if you might (due to shipping difficulties...) receive it in less than pristine condition (mine WAS!), it is absolutely WORTH EVERY PENNY! And should there be any loss of 'jewel attachment", it is very much WORTH you own time, to adjust. Summary: GREAT PRICE, GREAT PIECE!.
