Unlike the other metal artwork pieces featured so far, which were singular designs, this piece is a four-item set of wall panels. The design capitalizes on the increasing demand on Tuscany-inspired interior design and decorative elements.

Featuring natural colors, brown and black, the majestic, massive and mighty oak tree is likely to impress anyone who walks in through the door to your day area or dining room.
