Description
This hanging porcelain Christmas tree decoration takes the shape of a little Christmas tree, with a five-pointed star set inside a circle at its heart. The spaces between the star's points are cut through, so light passes through the centre and picks out the star. The porcelain has a smooth, glossy white finish, and a fine gold line traces every edge of the tree, the circle and the star. It measures 16cm tall, 7.5cm wide and 0.5cm deep, so it sits flat and neat on a branch, and a gold cord through a small loop at the tip is ready for hanging.
It is made for the Christmas tree, where its white and gold suit branches dressed in pale, natural or metallic tones, and it sits happily beside glass baubles and fairy lights. Its slim, flat shape also works away from the tree: hang it from a wreath, a garland along the mantelpiece or a window catch, or from a bare branch in a vase on a table or sideboard. Tied into the ribbon on a wrapped present, it becomes a little extra that stays long after the paper has gone, and it makes a thoughtful Christmas gift for anyone who loves to dress the tree each December.
Porcelain can chip or break if it is dropped or knocked, so choose a sturdy branch and keep it out of reach of little hands and curious pets. To care for it, dust with a soft dry cloth, or wipe gently with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight away, taking care over the gold lines. When the season ends, wrap it in tissue and store it flat in a box, ready for the next Christmas. Against green branches or a white tree, its gold outline brings a calm, bright note.
