This is STUNNING!! Measures 12" across x about 9" tall. The individual pieces are securely wired together. There are about 7 broken pieces (I have taken photos of all the breaks) - none on the top rung, 5 on the middle rung (all breaks on top 3rd of piece near the green area) and 2 on the bottom run (including the broken brown bubble). None of the breaks really detract as each piece is attached to others in all 4 corners , there are not "loose" or "floppy" places. I am not the original owner, so I don't know the history or the origin. It is beautiful!! S
My home is smoke free. Please let me know if you have any questions!
