Description
This beaded glass light-up decoration is a tall, clear tube filled with a loose tangle of fine wire, threaded with silver beads and tiny LED lights. When lit, the little lights catch on every bead and the whole tube shimmers with a soft glow, while unlit it reads as a clean column of glass and silver. It stands 30.5cm tall and 9cm across, on a round mirror-finish silver base that reflects the beads inside. The silver and clear glass suit almost any colour scheme, from crisp whites to deep greys.
It is made for dry rooms indoors, and it is at its best where a lamp would feel too much: a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway console, a bedside table or a bookshelf. Because it runs on batteries, there is no flex to hide and no need to sit it near a socket, so you can place it wherever the room needs a little light. Set beside candles and mirrors on a shelf, it adds a quiet sparkle to an evening, and on its own it makes a neat centre for a dining table. It is a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves a little shimmer about the home.
It is made from glass, plastic, copper and metal: a clear glass tube holding the beaded wire and its lights, set on the mirror-finish base. It takes three AAA batteries (MN2400), which are not included, so keep a set to hand when you unwrap it. To care for it, dust the glass and the base with a soft dry cloth, and wipe away marks on the glass with a damp cloth, keeping moisture away from the base and the batteries. Take the batteries out if it will be stored for a while. For the prettiest effect, light it as the evening draws in and place it near a mirror or a window, where the beads will double their sparkle.
