Description
This snow globe sets Santa in his red sleigh beside a tall green Christmas tree, with two reindeer leaping ahead of him, all held inside a clear round globe. Below the globe sits a snowy village base, where a timber cottage and a stone house with warm amber windows stand among frosted fir trees, a little bridge crosses a pale blue stream and a small figure in a red coat clears the snow. Give the globe a gentle shake and shimmering glitter swirls around the scene before slowly settling again. It stands 16cm tall, 13cm wide and 13cm deep, a size that sits comfortably on a mantelpiece or windowsill without crowding it.
We see this as a piece that comes out each December and soon becomes part of the family's Christmas routine. It suits a mantelpiece among cards and garlands, a hallway console where guests pass by, a dining room sideboard or a bedside table, where the glitter can be watched drifting as the evenings draw in. As a Christmas gift it makes a thoughtful keepsake, the kind of present that is unwrapped once and then brought out year after year, and it looks lovely with a card tucked beside it on the day.
The scene is finely modelled, from the textured branches of the tree to the snow piled on the cottage roofs, and the base carries a sparkling frosted finish. It is freestanding, so it needs no hook or wall, and the wide base gives it a settled footing on a flat surface. Dust it with a soft dry cloth and handle the globe with care, setting it on a level shelf away from the edge. When the decorations come down, wrap it in tissue and store it with your other treasured pieces, ready to bring back out next Christmas, or wrap it for someone who loves a traditional festive scene.
