Robin Bird House Light-Up Resin Figurine 18cm - Red & Brown

This robin bird house figurine brings a cheerful little scene to the Christmas shelf: a plump robin perched on a frosted red roof, beside a generous red bow and sprigs of holly. The house has a light brown wood-effect finish with moulded grain, and the word "peace" runs across the front in red script, with a glittered white snowflake beside it and a red poinsettia with green berries at its foot. The round doorway lights up from within, with a small perch peg just beneath it. Made from polystone resin, it stands 18cm tall, 15cm wide and 7.5cm deep.

We like it best somewhere you pass every day in December: on the mantelpiece, a hall table, a bookshelf or a deep windowsill. Because the doorway glows, it comes into its own in the evening, when a small light by the tree or on a sideboard feels far cosier than the one overhead. At just 7.5cm deep it fits a narrow ledge, and its rustic wood-effect look sits easily alongside pine cones and greenery. It is a piece for dry rooms indoors, so the living room, hallway or a bedroom suits it well. As a Christmas gift it is an easy, warm-hearted choice that comes out year after year.

The figurine is moulded in polystone resin and painted in detail, from the robin's orange breast to the frosted glitter on the roof, the holly and the poinsettia leaves. It stands on its own flat base, so it needs no hook or wall space. The light runs on two LR44 button batteries, and both are included, so it is ready to glow straight from the box. Dust it with a soft dry cloth and keep it away from water; the glittered frost is best left alone rather than rubbed. Set it at eye level, where the lit doorway and the little robin are easy to enjoy.
