Description
This textured mushroom ornament in resin brings a pair of hedgehogs into the home, the two of them tucked up together at the foot of a tall, pale stem. The cap rises to a point like a woodland toadstool, and its surface is worked in close rows of a rope-like texture that catch the light and give it real depth. Beneath the cap, the stem has a wood-effect finish, scored with fine grain lines and small cracks, so it reads like a piece of weathered timber. The hedgehogs, one larger with its arms folded and one smaller at its side, are painted in russet brown with soft cream faces. It stands 40.9cm tall, 10.9cm wide and 20cm deep, in brown with a vintage finish.
At that height it has presence enough to stand on its own, so we like it on a hearth, beside a doorway, on a deep windowsill or at the end of a sideboard where the woodland look can be seen properly. It suits a cottage-style kitchen, a snug sitting room or a hallway that wants a little warmth. The rope-like texture carries round the back of the cap and the grain runs right round the stem, so it looks finished wherever it is placed. It also makes a thoughtful new home gift for anyone who loves hedgehogs, woodland walks or a gentle countryside style.
It is made from resin, which holds the fine detail of the cap's twisted ridges, the grain of the stem and the hedgehogs' bristly coats. The vintage finish gives it a gently aged look, with paler highlights on the ridges and deeper brown in the grooves. Care is simple: dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it over with a damp cloth and let it dry. It looks lovely grouped with candles and seasonal greenery on a mantelpiece.

Frequently Asked
How big is the hedgehog and mushroom ornament?
It stands 40.9cm tall, 10.9cm wide and 20cm deep, so it has enough height to sit on a hearth or beside a doorway as well as on a deep windowsill.
What is the mushroom ornament made from?
It is made from resin, which holds the fine detail of the rope-like cap, the wood-effect stem and the two hedgehogs' bristly coats.
What colour is it?

Is the back of the ornament finished too?
Yes, the rope-like texture runs over the back of the cap and the wood grain continues round the stem, so it looks good from more than one side.
