Description
This hanging stocking brings a rich, traditional look to the Christmas fireplace, with a deep red body, a plush cream cuff and a jewelled medallion at its centre. The medallion is a diamond-shaped outline of looped gold braid, filled with gold sprays around a single faceted clear jewel that catches the light. A band of scalloped gold trim runs beneath the cuff, and the heel and toe are picked out in deep green, each edged with the same looped gold braid. The red has a soft sheen that deepens in the folds, so the stocking looks warm and full rather than flat. At 53cm, it is a generous stocking that hangs with real presence.
It is made to hang, with a loop at the top of the cuff for a hook, a stocking holder on the mantelpiece, a newel post or a peg on a door. Hung over the fireplace or at the foot of the bed, it brings a classic red, gold and green palette that sits happily alongside traditional tree decorations, garlands and candlelight. Hang one for everyone in the house, or use a single stocking as a festive touch on a staircase or beside a dresser. On Christmas morning it is ready to be filled with small presents, sweets and treats.
The braid, jewel and medallion sit on the front face, so the stocking looks its best hung flat against a wall or the front of a mantel. Treat it gently: brush away dust with a soft dry cloth, keep it dry, and store it loosely folded in a box once the season is over so the cuff keeps its pile and the gold trim stays crisp. Hang it well away from open flames and heaters, as you would any hanging decoration. We think it makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, and a keepsake to bring out year after year.
