Description
This metal wall plaque says it plainly: Gone Fishing, in raised letters across a neat rectangular panel. The letters stand proud of a textured silver background, framed by a raised border, and the shiny finish gives way to darker, distressed patches around the edges and in the recesses, so the plaque has the look of a sign that has hung by a riverside door for years. It measures 15.5cm wide, 4.5cm high and 0.5cm deep, a compact size that reads clearly from across a room without taking over a wall.
It is a cheerful sign for anyone whose weekends belong to the water. Hang it on the door of a study, den or hobby room, above a rack of rods in the hallway, or wherever the tackle bag lives, and the message is clear: the angler of the house is off somewhere quiet with a flask and a line in the water. We think it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift for dads who fish, a small present that raises a smile and gets put up straight away. It also makes a fun housewarming present for a keen angler moving house, ready to go up on a study or garage wall as soon as the boxes are unpacked.
The plaque is made of metal, with a small rounded tab at each end pierced with a hole, so it fixes flat to a wall or door with a screw at either side. At just 0.5cm deep it sits close to the surface. Looking after it is simple: dust it with a soft, dry cloth, and wipe away marks with a barely damp cloth, drying it straight after. Hang it at eye height beside the door the angler heads out of, and it will say what everyone already knows. As a gift, its slim, flat shape makes it simple to wrap.
