Description
This shaggy Highland cow figurine stands square on its four hooves, a long fringe falling over its eyes and a pair of curved horns sweeping out to either side. We love the detail in the coat: every lock of hair is picked out, from the tufts around the face to the long strands that hang down the flanks and the tail. The whole figure is finished in shiny gold, so the light runs along each ridge of the coat and the piece seems to glow on a shelf. It is made in resin, the dense kind often called polystone, and it measures 15cm high, 19cm wide and 9cm deep, a small size that suits a shelf or desk.
At 19cm across and only 9cm deep, it sits comfortably on a narrow bookcase shelf, a mantelpiece, a windowsill or the corner of a desk without crowding the things around it. In a living room it adds a warm, cheerful note among books and framed prints, and in a hallway it gives visitors something to smile at as they come in. The gold tone sits well with warm woods, cream and natural linen, and it looks especially rich against deep green, navy or charcoal walls, where the shine stands out. It also makes a thoughtful gift, small enough to wrap easily and sure to be noticed once it is out of the paper.
The figure is freestanding, resting on its four hooves, so it needs no fixings and can be moved from room to room. The resin takes the fine detail of the coat well, so it looks full and lively. To keep the shiny gold finish at its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. For an easy display, set it on a short stack of books or beside a small trailing plant, and let the gold do the rest.
