This is a super neat, kinda natural looking garland. With natural colors, the twig looking garland has been bound by a craft paper, wrapping what looks to be twigs and natural type items within nature. Has been painted gold. These have been kept in a controlled environment since 2004 and never used. I did remove one from the plastic for photographing only. They, based on nature, do have some residual paint loss throughout, but does not distract from this really neat natural looking garland. Are able to slightly separate twigs to enhance visibility. You will get two, 5' strands, totaling 10 foot long. I take pride in my pictures, and are a valuable extension of my description. Please take time to see the product fully. Buy with confidence!
