Description
This bright red lobster Christmas tree decoration is made from polyresin and brings a cheerful seaside character to the branches. The lobster is modelled in the round, with a segmented body, a fanned tail, curled legs along each side and two big claws whose tips shade to orange. It hangs tail up from a small loop on a red ribbon, so the claws point down and the whole shape reads clearly from across the room. It measures 6.3cm across, 7.7cm deep and 3cm high, so it fits easily between larger baubles, and it comes in a gift box.
We think it suits a tree with a coastal or nautical feel, hung among blues, whites and sandy neutrals where its red stands out, but it is just as happy on a traditional tree of red and gold, where it adds a wink of humour among the classic baubles. Away from the tree, the ribbon lets it hang from a garland along the mantelpiece, a bunch of twigs in a vase or a hook on a dresser through the festive weeks. It is a playful choice for a tree that tells a story, perhaps of summers by the harbour.
Polyresin is a resin that takes moulded detail well, which is why the ridges on the shell and the toothed inner edges of the claws come through so crisply. Lift it by the ribbon or the body rather than the claws, and take care over hard floors while you dress the tree. To keep it looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight away. When the decorations come down, pop it back in its gift box so it stays safe until next Christmas. Because it arrives boxed, it makes an easy little present to tie on a wrapped parcel.
