Description
This cheerful light-up decoration takes the shape of a traditional postbox, topped with a snowy white cap and a little robin perched on the very top. The upper robin wears a cosy red scarf, while a second robin sits at the foot of the postbox in a red and white Santa hat. Gold bands circle the top and bottom of the postbox, a sprig of holly and berries sits beneath the cap, and a white panel on the front carries the words Merry Christmas in gold lettering. Made from resin and standing 17cm tall, it is finished in bright red with sparkling snowy white detail on the cap and the base.
Its size suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a hallway table or a bookshelf, and it stands on its own snowy base, so it needs no wall or hook. Because it lights up, it is especially cheering on dark winter evenings, adding a festive corner to the living room, the dining room or an indoor windowsill. It is made for dry rooms inside the home. With its two cheerful robins and its Merry Christmas message, it makes a thoughtful little Christmas gift that is ready to set out the moment it is unwrapped.
It runs on two LR44 button cell batteries, so it needs no plug socket nearby and can sit wherever it looks best. The resin is painted in detail, from the sparkling cap and base to the gold bands and the soft colouring of the robins' feathers. To keep it looking fresh from one Christmas to the next, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water. If you pack it away after the season, taking the batteries out first is good practice. Set it among a few pine cones and a sprig of greenery on the mantelpiece for a cosy winter scene.
