Description
This shark eraser is a chunky rubber eraser moulded into the shape of a shark, with a pointed snout, a tall dorsal fin, two side fins and a forked tail. Ridged gill lines run along each side and a small dark eye sits near the nose, so it reads as a proper little shark at a glance. It measures 13cm long, 4.7cm wide and 5.5cm high, and at 110g it has a solid, satisfying weight in the hand. It comes in two colours, grey and blue, and we send one of them chosen at random, so we cannot promise which colour will arrive.
It earns its place on a desk in a study, a home office or a craft corner, where it does the everyday job of rubbing out pencil marks in sketchbooks, notebooks and exercise books. Between uses it rests steadily on its fins, so it doubles as a small desk ornament that looks just as at home beside a pot of pencils as it does in a drawer. The rounded body is easy to hold, and the pointed snout lets you reach into small areas for tidy corrections, while the broad sides deal with bigger patches of shading. It is a fun choice for anyone who likes their stationery to have a bit of personality.
Made from rubber, it has a soft matt finish with the gills and fins moulded in, and plenty of material to see it through a good deal of drawing and writing. To keep it working well, rub it across a scrap of clean paper now and then to lift any graphite from the surface, and brush the crumbs away as you go. Keep it on the desk where it is close to hand, or wrap it as a cheerful small gift that is both useful and fun to have around.
