Description
This cheerful polar bear decoration brings a snowy friend to the season: a plump white bear called Blizzard, wrapped in a red and white striped scarf and holding a green holly wreath dotted with red berries. He is cast in resin, also known as polystone, and his coat is sculpted all over with a tufted texture, front and back, so he looks as good from behind. Pink ears, dark eyes, a black nose and a gentle smile give him a friendly face, and a pair of brown boots finish him at the base. He stands 15.5cm tall, 10.5cm wide and 9cm deep.
That size suits a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a bookshelf or a hall table, where he can stand among baubles, greenery and other festive pieces or hold his own in a quiet corner. He is small enough to bring a touch of Christmas to a bedroom, a home office or a kitchen shelf that has no room for a tree. The white of his coat, the red of his scarf and the green of his wreath sit as happily in a traditional red and green scheme as in a frosty white one. He makes a cheerful Christmas gift, easy to wrap and slip into a stocking or tuck beside a card.
He stands on his two brown boots, so he needs no stand, hook or fixing. His scarf, wreath and boots are picked out in bright painted colours against the white of his coat. To keep him fresh, dust him with a soft dry cloth, or wipe him with a slightly damp cloth and let him dry before he goes back on show. When the season ends, wrap him in tissue paper and store him with your decorations, ready for next December. Set him on a hall shelf or at the foot of the tree, and he will greet everyone with his wreath held out.
