Description
This pink glass elephant figurine stands with its trunk raised high, a cheerful little character in mottled pink glass. The colour runs through its head and body in soft swirls, paler in some places and deeper in others, while the upturned trunk, the ears and the feet are clear glass that lets the light through. A round body and a small dark eye give it a friendly, good-humoured look. It stands 13.5cm tall, 6.5cm wide and 6.5cm deep, so it is small enough for a narrow shelf yet tall enough to be noticed.
We like it on a bookshelf, a windowsill or a dressing table, anywhere a small spot of colour is welcome. On a windowsill, daylight passes through the clear trunk and ears and brings out the depth of the pink, which changes a little as the light moves through the day. It sits just as happily on a desk, a bedside table or a hallway shelf, and because it takes up so little room it fits among books, photo frames and plants without crowding them. In a white or grey room it adds a gentle note of warmth, and in a pink scheme it ties the colours together. As a gift, it is a small, colourful piece that is easy to wrap and easy to find a home for.
The figurine is made of glass, with smooth, rounded curves that are easy to keep clean. Dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it straight away to keep the glass bright. Like any glass ornament, it is happiest on a steady, level surface away from the edge of a shelf. For a simple display, stand it alone on a clear windowsill, or group it with other pink or clear glass pieces, and wrap it in tissue when you give it as a gift.
