I didn’t purchase the star until the “After Holidays” sales started; I topped the tree with it when it arrived today, however. I have 8 ft ceilings and a 7 ft tree, so it’s the perfect size. It’s well made & totally metal; has a nice attachment set up for going on the tree and is very “Crisp” looking. I have a number of black accents in my home, so it fits my style, but if you ever tried of the black you could spray paint it any color you wanted to. Really happy with my purchase, I’d say 5-stars...
