Description
This giraffe family figurine shows a tall adult giraffe standing with its calf beside a flat-topped tree, the pair rising from a sweeping, rippled base. It is made of resin and hand-painted to look like wood grain, with warm tan and caramel tones running down the necks and legs and deep brown patches marking each coat. The detail is fine up close: the mane is picked out strand by strand, the ears and short horns are neatly shaped, and the calf tucks in close against its parent's side. At 32.5cm tall, 19cm wide and 9cm deep, it is a good size to be noticed without taking over a shelf.
Because it is only 9cm deep, the figurine sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a bookcase shelf, a windowsill or a sideboard, and its slim profile suits a hallway console where space is tight. The brown tones sit easily with natural wood furniture, rattan and woven textures, and they warm up a room dressed in creams, whites or greens. A parent and young together is a gentle subject that suits a living room, a study or a bedroom equally well, and we think it makes a thoughtful present to give or to keep.
The giraffes and tree rest on a deep brown block plinth, so the figurine is freestanding and needs no wall fixing. Resin holds fine detail well, and the hand-painted finish gives the grain and spots real depth. To keep it looking its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth, or use a soft brush to reach the mane and branches, and avoid harsh cleaners that could dull the paint. Stand it at eye level, where the long neck and spreading branches show in profile, or group it with books and a trailing plant for a relaxed, natural corner.
