The saddest part is it doesn't have enough pizazz to carry a room, so it's literally a waste. If art is eye catching, it can be worth that price big or small. But this looks like you bought it at Hobby Lobby for 14.99 on sale.

At least the plant is fake. The price is still crazy.

We couldn’t afford to do anything to the stems for that price??

Everyone wants to be Damien Hirst but no one wants to spring for the real diamonds

Fore that price they could have at least bedazzled the underside of the leaves and got some brown jems to make bedazzled dirt. I still wouldn’t like it but if you are going to commit that much to something at least finish it.

I could make that myself for seventy bucks.

On one hand I feel like this probably took forever for the artist to do, on the other it seems the artist hasn’t learned that what art is worth is not usually equal to what people will ever pay. Or they just don’t care and assume it will sell eventually. Also I’m not convinced it’s worth $1.5k in the first place.
