Description
This spell plaque carries a single famous incantation, EXPELLIARMUS, in tall pale gold capitals, with THE DISARMING CHARM set in smaller letters beneath it. The words sit on a black face scattered with small white stars, so the whole piece reads like a page from a spell book under a night sky. A raised gold-coloured border runs all the way round, stepped and notched at each end in the manner of an old door or shop sign, and the plaque has a metallic effect finish. It is 14.8cm across, 5.5cm high and 1.6cm deep, a neat, compact size that fits where a larger sign would crowd the space.
At this size it suits the smaller corners of a home: a bookshelf among well loved novels, a desk, a study or a bedroom shelf where a little magic is welcome. The black background and gold-coloured border sit comfortably against pale walls or deep painted ones, and the starry pattern gives it a playful lift without shouting. Because the plaque names one charm rather than a whole scene, it makes a pointed, witty choice for a reading corner or a games room, and it is the sort of small gift that raises a smile the moment it is unwrapped.
The lettering and stars stand out crisply against the black face, and the gold-coloured border is raised slightly above it, giving the front a framed, finished edge that catches the light. The metallic effect finish adds a soft sheen to the whole piece. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from damp. For styling, we like it leaning against a stack of hardbacks or set beside a few favourite books, and as a gift it slips easily into a parcel alongside a novel the recipient has been meaning to read.
