Polished Stone Effect Resin Turtle Figurine 17cm - Blue

This resin turtle figurine has a glossy, speckled blue shell made to look like polished stone, with a head and four flippers in textured silver. Fine pale lines trace each plate of the shell, and the blue runs from a lighter shade across the top to a deeper one around the rim, so the gloss catches the light. The head and flippers carry a scaly pattern that gives the piece a lifelike look, with the flippers spread wide as if the turtle were gliding through the water. It measures 17cm at its longest, 14cm wide and just 5cm high, a low ornament that sits flat rather than standing tall.

Being small and low, it suits spots where a taller ornament would crowd things: a bookshelf, a mantelpiece, a windowsill, a desk or a bedside table. The blue and silver colouring sits happily in a coastal or seaside room, and looks just as much at home among other blues, greys and whites in a living room, hallway or study. At only 5cm high it fits on a shelf with little headroom, or in front of framed photographs without hiding them. Set it beside shells or driftwood you already have and it makes a small seaside corner.

The figurine is made from resin with a gloss finish, which gives the shell its polished stone look; it is a stone effect rather than real stone. There is nothing to fix or assemble: it simply rests on its body and outstretched flippers on any level surface. To keep the shine bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and if it needs a little more, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and dry it straight away. We think it makes a charming small gift wrapped on its own, and a cheerful finishing touch for any shelf that could do with a splash of blue.
