Snowy Pine Foliage Faux Plant with Cones 71.1cm - Green

This snowy pine faux plant is a long, low spray of frosted pine foliage gathered around a cluster of brown pine cones. Pale green sprigs fan out to either side, each dusted with a white frosting, while small clusters of white berries and slender whitened twigs reach out through the greenery. The cones sit at the heart of the spray in a mix of sizes, their natural brown tones lightly touched with white at the tips, so the whole piece reads like a branch gathered from a wintry wood. It measures 71.1cm across, 26cm high and 13cm deep, giving it a generous width while staying slim enough to sit close to a wall or a window.

As a Christmas decoration it suits a mantelpiece, a sideboard, a deep windowsill or the centre of a dining table, where its width runs along the surface and the cones give the eye a natural focal point. In a hallway it dresses a console table to greet guests, and on a bookcase it softens a long shelf. The frosted green and white palette sits happily with silver, white and natural wood, and it holds its own against deeper reds and golds if your scheme leans traditional. It also makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, easy to hand over and ready to put out straight away.

Being a faux plant, it needs no water, and the frosting over the green gives the pine its snowy finish. To keep it looking its best, dust it gently with a soft dry cloth or a soft brush, and store it flat in a box between Christmases so the sprigs keep their shape. Keep it well away from candles, open flames and heaters. For a finishing touch, tuck a few silver baubles among the sprigs, or lay it beneath a mirror so the frosted tips catch the light.
