Description
This little butterfly ornament for grandma is a glazed stoneware token that comes in its own matchbox, a small and cheerful way to let her know she is in your thoughts. The token is shaped like a butterfly, its wings decorated in soft pink, lilac and pale blue with a touch of yellow at the centre, all set on a creamy ground. The glaze gives the surface a gentle shine that catches the light as it is turned in the hand. It is a tiny piece, measuring 4cm one way and 3.5cm the other across its face and just 0.5cm deep, so it rests easily in the palm.
Because it is so small, it suits all sorts of spots: a bedside table, a windowsill, a dressing table or the shelf beside her favourite chair, where she will see it every day. The matchbox means it can just as easily travel in a handbag or wait in a drawer, ready to bring out whenever she likes. We think it makes a lovely Mother's Day gift for a grandmother, a gentle thank you for everything she does, or simply a small surprise to send in the post. It is a keepsake rather than anything practical, and that is the point: a little token that says a great deal.
The token is made from stoneware and finished with a smooth glaze over its multi-coloured design. To look after it, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it gently with a damp cloth and let it dry fully before it goes back in its box. For gifting, the matchbox does half the work for you: tuck it beside a card with a handwritten note, add it to a hamper of her favourite treats, or leave it on her pillow for her to find.
