Speckled Cockerel Glass Figurine with Fan Tail - Red & Green

This speckled cockerel glass figurine brings a bright farmyard spark to a shelf or windowsill. He stands proud with a tall red comb, a curved red wattle and a fanned red tail that spreads out behind him like an open shell, while a ribbed red wing sits on each side of his rounded body. That body is the part that holds the eye: warm amber glass speckled all over with green, red and dark brown, so the colour seems to shift as you walk past. A small bright eye finishes his face. He measures 15.3cm tall, 9.9cm wide and 13.2cm deep.

Our cockerel feels most at home in a country kitchen, on a dresser shelf among jugs and plates, or on a sunny windowsill where daylight passes through the coloured glass and makes the reds glow. He is just as happy on a mantelpiece, a hall table or a bookcase, adding a splash of red and green to a quiet corner. His shiny, richly coloured glass shows up well against plain painted walls, pale wood and simple stoneware, and he sits nicely alongside other birds or rustic pieces. At 15.3cm tall he reads clearly from across a room, yet he fits comfortably on a narrow ledge.

He is made of glass with a shiny finish and sits on the base of his rounded body, so there is nothing to fix or hang: simply set him on a flat, level surface away from the edge of a busy shelf, as you would any glass ornament. To keep the colours bright, dust him with a soft dry cloth, and when he needs more, wipe him gently with a damp cloth and dry him straight away. As a gift he brings an easy smile, and on your own dresser he adds a cheerful country note to every day.
