Description
This crackle glass votive ornament carries a hand-painted white tree. Its branches are raised in fine piped lines that reach from the frosted base almost to the rim. Gold, bronze and silvery sequins are scattered across the boughs like baubles, and a soft golden wash behind the trunk warms the whole design. The clear glass has a delicate crackle pattern all over, so it catches and breaks up the light. The base is finished in a band of white frosting with a gentle sparkle, like a dusting of fresh snow. It stands 7.5cm tall and 6.7cm across, a neat, round piece that fits in the palm of your hand.
Set it on a mantelpiece, a windowsill or a dining table and it brings a quiet, wintry glow to the room. Drop in a tealight and the crackle glass scatters the flame into a web of tiny reflections, while the white tree and its sequins stand out against the light. Because it is small, it works well in a group along a shelf or down the centre of a table. It also sits happily on its own by the bed or in the hall. Its clear and white colouring sits easily beside silver, gold or natural greenery, so it suits most winter schemes.
It is made of glass and stands on its own round base, so it needs no hook or wall fixing. As with any candle, never leave a burning tealight unattended, and keep it away from curtains and anything that might catch. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and take care around the sequins and the frosted base. Wipe the plain glass with a slightly damp cloth if it needs it. We think it makes a lovely small gift for anyone who enjoys a softly lit room in the colder months, and it pairs nicely with a box of tealights.
