Description
Our decorative medium artichoke is a sculptural piece cast in resin with a soft white finish. Modelled on the layered form of a real artichoke, it has overlapping leaf-like scales that build up towards a gently pointed tip, giving depth and shadow across the surface. At 12x12x12cm it sits comfortably in the hand and holds its own on a shelf without crowding the space around it. The resin has a smooth, matte feel that keeps the focus on the shape rather than any shine.
This is a versatile little piece that suits far more than one season. It works as part of a festive display among candles and greenery, but the pale, botanical form means it settles just as easily into everyday styling through the rest of the year. Group it with books, a small vase or a bowl on a coffee table, or let it stand alone on a mantel or windowsill. The neutral white tone sits well against wood, stone and painted surfaces, so it fits both traditional and pared-back interiors. Two or three placed together at slightly different heights make a quiet, considered arrangement.
Because it is solid resin, it feels weightier than it looks and stays put where you place it. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, working gently into the grooves between the scales. For any marks, wipe with a barely damp cloth and dry straightaway. Avoid harsh cleaners and prolonged damp, and store it wrapped when not on display so the tip stays intact.

Frequently Asked
What is it made from?
It is cast in solid resin with a matte white finish, which gives it a bit of weight and lets the moulded leaf detail show clearly.
Can I use it beyond Christmas?
Yes. While it works well within festive Christmas decorations, the botanical shape and neutral white tone mean it suits shelves, mantels and tables all year round.
How big is it?
It measures 12x12x12cm, so it is a medium size that reads as a proper piece on a shelf without dominating the surface.
How do I keep it clean?
Dust with a soft dry cloth, getting into the grooves between the scales. Wipe any marks with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight after.
Does it stand on its own?
Yes, it has a stable base and stands well alone or grouped with other pieces at varying heights.
