It's the perfect addition to Holiday adn Christmas decor. It's size alone sets it apart with a 10" span in width approximately, 5" deep and 6" tall. It's also quite heavy weighing in at almost 8 lbs. It has an auburn/bittersweet chocolate tone in it's finish presumably to make it appear as if it is carved from wood and a semi gloss shine that appears as if it is bronze or a metal of some sort. A single rod hanging bar is embedded in the hollow portion en verso. No makers mark or country of origin is discoverable. Although unlikely it has the high quality that one might expect from it having been made for a place of worship. less
