Description
This flocked resin crow ornament stands on its own two feet. It is a black bird with its head tilted upwards and a glossy beak that catches the light. The resin body is covered in a fine flocked coat that gives it a soft, matt look and feel, and the moulding picks out layered wing feathers, a fanned tail and long clawed toes. It measures 13.3cm tall, 17cm wide and 6.5cm deep, so it sits comfortably on a shelf or mantelpiece without taking over the space.
We see it as a Halloween piece first, the kind of bird that looks as though it has just landed on the sideboard to keep watch. Perch it on a mantelpiece, a hallway console, a bookcase or a windowsill indoors, or stand it in the middle of a table laid for a Halloween supper. Because it is freestanding, there is nothing to hang and no fixings to fit. Simply set it down on a flat surface and it holds its pose. Its plain black colour suits a dark, gothic scheme as easily as a brighter seasonal display, and it makes an easy gift to bring along to a Halloween party.
The crow is moulded in resin and finished all over in black flocking, with the beak left smooth and glossy for contrast. The flocked surface is soft to the touch, so handle it gently and keep it somewhere dry. Dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth or a clean, soft brush, and avoid water or cleaning sprays, which can flatten the flocking. When the season ends, wrap it in tissue and box it so the feet and tail stay crisp for the next Halloween. Give it a perch of its own on a stack of old books, where it can keep a beady eye on the room.
