{"product_id":"nitin-striped-glass-christmas-bauble-gold","title":"Nitin Striped Glass Christmas Bauble - Gold","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eNitin is a round glass Christmas decoration in gold, 10cm across, with fine horizontal stripes running around the whole ball. The stripes are ribbed, so the surface carries a texture you can see and feel rather than a flat painted line, and the gold picks up light along every ridge. At the top sits a metal cap with a small ring, threaded with a thin string for hanging. It is made of glass and iron and weighs 0.13KG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 10cm across it is a good size for the front of a full Christmas tree, where it holds its own among smaller baubles rather than disappearing into the needles. It also suits a garland draped along a mantelpiece, a bare branch in a vase, or a window where daylight can catch the ribbing. At 0.13KG it wants a firm branch or a hook rather than a slender tip. It suits anyone dressing a tree in warm metallic tones, and it sits happily beside greenery, wood and paper ornaments, or gathered in a shallow tray or bowl as a table display through December.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlass and iron are its two materials, and you can see where each sits: a glass ball, and a metal cap and ring at the top that take the string. The ribbing runs in close, fine bands from the cap down to the base, so the ball shimmers as it turns on its string. Glass is hard but brittle, so a bauble like this is best wrapped on its own in paper when the decorations come down. For styling, hang several at different heights across a tree and let the gold stripes stand out against dark green needles, or tie one to a wrapped gift with a sprig of greenery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGlass, Iron\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGold\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.13KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the Nitin decoration?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a round ball 10cm across, large enough to stand out at the front of a full Christmas tree or along a mantelpiece garland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is it made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made of glass and iron: a glass ball with ribbed gold stripes, finished at the top with a metal cap and a small hanging ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come ready to hang?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
