I really love this vase, exactly what I needed to dress up a corner in my small livingroom . My living room is small and I love big vases, but this one is no too big, yet not too small, perfect fit. The color is rich and beautiful. I took their advise as how to put it together, but I assembled the leaves closer to each other, otherwise it left big gaps in between and made it look like it needed more leaves. Very easy to do. The vase is a lot lighter than I thought it would be and they don't send you enough sand to weigh it down, so I will be buying some more to put into it. For that reason, it being so light of a vase, that I gave the value only three stars. My opinion, cost to high for such a very light vase. It gives the impression of being made of a heavier material, and if you didn't know better you would think it was. Other than that, like I said, I love it! In fact I am looking for another one, different style, for my bedroom. I love shopping this site because I can almost always find what I need here, without having to pay an arm and a leg for shipping! I always look here first. For as much as I shop here, so far, I have not had to return anything and I can't believe how fast their delivery is! Great job Overstock!
