Description
This fluffy wind-up toy is a little pale yellow chick with plenty of character, from the yellow sunglasses perched on its head to the bright orange bill and webbed feet that give it the look of a young duckling. Two shiny black eyes sit either side of the bill, a red and white twine tie is knotted around its neck, and a small orange key on one side winds it up. It stands 9.2cm tall, 7.6cm long and 6.4cm wide, so it sits comfortably in the palm of your hand, and at 0.025KG it is wonderfully light.
Wind it up, set it down on a smooth, flat surface and let it go: it is a simple, cheerful bit of play that raises a smile every time. Between turns it makes a sunny little companion on a desk, a bookshelf or a windowsill, where the soft coat and cool sunglasses bring a dose of fun to an ordinary day. We think it suits anyone who likes a touch of whimsy around them, and it is just as happy waiting on a shelf as it is being wound up again and again.
It is made from polyester, plastic and metal, with a fluffy coat that is soft to the touch and bright details that hold their shape. Wind the key gently and stop as soon as you feel it resist, which is kind to the mechanism inside. To keep the fluff looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. Pop it in a small box with a handwritten note and it makes a light, cheerful present that brings a little sunshine to someone's day.
