Miniature Speckled Owl Glass Figurine - White & Brown

This miniature glass owl figurine is a small, round-bodied bird in clear glass, its body filled with white speckles that look a little like falling snow. On top sits a warm brown head with two pointed ear tufts, wide round brown eyes with dark pupils and a small black beak, so the owl gazes out with a friendly, wide-eyed stare. It stands just 4cm tall and measures 3.5cm across and 3.5cm deep, small enough to rest in the palm of your hand. Because the glass is clear, light passes through the body and the white speckles seem to float inside it.

With its tiny footprint, the owl fits wherever there is a little space to fill: a bookshelf, a windowsill, a bedside table or the corner of a desk. On a sunny windowsill the daylight shines through the clear glass and picks out every white fleck, while on a shelf its brown head and white body bring a small touch of warmth without crowding the things around it. It sits happily alone or among other little ornaments on a mantelpiece. Its size also makes it a thoughtful little present, easy to wrap and give on its own or alongside a card.

The figurine is made entirely of glass and stands on its own base, so it needs no stand, hook or fixing; simply set it on any flat surface. As with any glass ornament, keep it back from the edge of a shelf where it might be knocked. Care is easy: dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it gently with a damp cloth and dry it straight away to keep the glass bright. Set it beside a small plant or a stack of favourite books for a cosy corner, or group it near a window where the light can play through it.
