Description
This bird Christmas decoration is a plump little figure in shiny gold, standing tall under a round red crown. We love the detail on it: the body is covered in a fine raised dot texture that catches the light, while the wings are picked out in a smooth criss-cross pattern like tiny gold scales. The crown sits proudly on its head, with red panels framed by beaded gold bands and a gold knob on top, and a neat pointed beak and round eye finish the face. It is made of resin, also known as polystone, and measures 14cm tall, 5.5cm wide and 9cm deep, a size that tucks in neatly among other festive pieces.
At Christmas it makes a cheerful tabletop ornament, standing on its own slender legs and splayed feet with no hook or hanger needed. Set it on a mantelpiece among greenery and pine cones, on a windowsill, a sideboard or a bookshelf, or at the centre of the dining table for the festive meal. The red and gold palette sits happily with traditional decorations, and the crown gives it a playful, regal character that suits a hallway welcome as much as the living room. As a Christmas gift it is an easy choice for anyone who enjoys a touch of fun in their seasonal decorating.
Its shiny gold finish covers the textured body, the patterned wings, the legs and the beaded bands of the crown, while the crown's rounded panels are a rich red. To keep the gold looking bright, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, then wrap it in tissue when you pack the decorations away for next year. Choose its spot on a flat, level surface so it stands steady on its feet. For a bright little festive scene, pair it with gold baubles, a sprig of holly and a string of fairy lights.
