Description
This heart glass paperweight is a small piece of colour for the desk, made from deep cobalt blue glass with a copper glitter swirl turning through its centre. The swirl spirals out from the middle of the heart in soft, sparkling bands, so the glitter catches the light from every side. Around the edge, a band of clear glass frames the blue and lets the colour glow. The heart measures 10cm high and 9cm wide, and it is 3cm deep, a comfortable size to pick up in one hand and turn over.
On a desk it does the job its name promises, sitting on top of letters, notes and loose sheets to keep them together in one tidy pile. It is just as at home off duty: set it on a bookshelf or a bedside table, where light passing through the blue glass brings out the depth of the colour and the sparkle of the copper. In a study or home office it adds a bright note among pens and notebooks, and on a mantelpiece it sits happily beside candles and frames. With its heart shape and glittering swirl, it makes a thoughtful gift that earns its place on the desk rather than in a drawer.
The heart is made from glass, with a gently domed top that slopes down to a smaller base underneath, so it rests neatly on any flat surface. To keep it bright, we suggest dusting it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it straight away to avoid water marks. As with any glass, it is best kept away from the edge of a table where it could be knocked to the floor. For a gift, wrap it in tissue and pair it with a handwritten card, or keep it for yourself and let that copper swirl brighten a quiet corner of the working day.
