Wow.....my partner couldn't believe I was prepared to spend so much on a wallpaper you have to take into consideration that the roll is a lot wider than a traditional one. The finish on this paper has a sheer fi ish and when the sun catches it, there is a glow. My partner congratulated me on a wonderfully stunning paper. Easy to hang and has a great thickness which makes it easy to handle. Vet happywith my choice.
