Highland Cow in Dungarees on a Mushroom Polystone Figurine

This charming highland cow figurine sits on top of a bright red mushroom, his legs dangling over the edge of the cap and his front hooves resting on it. He wears blue-grey dungarees with buttoned straps and rolled cuffs, and his shaggy brown coat falls in thick, wavy locks over his eyes, framed by pale curved horns and soft ears. The cap is a warm red-orange dotted with white spots, a smaller spotted mushroom grows beside the frilled stalk, and the whole scene rises from a little mound of green grass and tiny painted flowers. Cast in polystone, a resin, he stands 17.8cm tall, 8.9cm wide and 9.6cm deep.

At 17.8cm tall, he is sized for a bookshelf, mantelpiece, windowsill or bedside table, where he takes up little room. At 8.9cm wide and 9.6cm deep, he can sit among books, plants or framed photos without crowding them. He brings a touch of countryside warmth to a living room, hallway or study, and the woodland toadstool adds a storybook feel that suits a cosy reading nook as well as a farmhouse-style kitchen dresser. Anyone who loves the shaggy highland breed, or simply enjoys a cheerful animal ornament with a bit of character, will find plenty to like here.

The figure is cast in polystone, with the texture of his coat, the weave of the dungarees and the ridges under the mushroom cap all picked out in painted detail. The grassy base sits flat, so he stands steadily on his own on any level surface. He is a decorative piece for indoors, so we would keep him on a dry shelf away from damp. To care for him, simply dust with a soft dry cloth, or wipe gently with a barely damp cloth and dry straight away. He makes a cheerful little gift, and looks lovely beside houseplants or a stack of countryside books.
