I have a few other shadow boxes and this one by far blows those away. The warm will not finish is on a beautiful solid wood frame. The box arrives well packaged with a glass safely inside the box, and intact. There are eight round wooden push pins that accompany the box. The cream, finer-than-burlap covering of the back of the shadow box is very attractive. instructions come with us, but it's incredibly intuitive and easy to use. Following how most picture frames are designed, you remove the back of the frame, take out the glass and the inner wooden frame, replace the glass to the front of the box, then place the inner wooden frame, finally putting the back of the box on. On the back, there are two sturdy wall mounts. Two wall mount molly anchors are included. Would give as a gift AND buy again.
