Description
This wooden ornament takes the shape of a pair of crossed skis, a small piece that brings a touch of the mountain lodge indoors. Carved from wood with a natural rustic finish, it carries the soft beige tone of the raw grain, complete with the little marks and variations that give real timber its character. Measuring 17cm tall by 7cm wide and just 2cm deep, it sits comfortably among other seasonal pieces without crowding a shelf or mantel.
These crossed skis suit anyone drawn to alpine and Scandi-inspired styling through the colder months. Prop the ornament against a stack of books, tuck it into a display of pinecones and candles, or hang it as part of a wider set of Christmas decorations. The pared-back beige works alongside greenery, tartan and warm metallics, and it reads just as well against a painted windowsill as it does on a rustic wooden dresser. Group a few together for a cabin feel or let this single piece stand quietly on its own.
Because it is made from natural wood, we suggest keeping it away from damp and direct heat so the timber holds its shape and colour. Dust it now and then with a dry soft cloth, and avoid soaking or using harsh sprays that could lift the finish. Stored somewhere dry between seasons, this little pair of skis should return year after year, and the natural grain will only look better with age.
