Description
This spotted sitting leopard figurine is a cheerful little piece of ceramic for a shelf, sill or mantelpiece. Our leopard sits upright on its haunches with its tail curled round to the front, its ears pricked and a quiet, contented smile on its face. The body is a clean white gloss, scattered from ears to paws with cobalt blue spots in loose dabs and flecks, so the pattern feels lively rather than regimented. Fine black lines pick out the eyes, the whiskers and the toes, and the nose is a neat touch of black. It stands 17.5cm tall, 9cm wide and 10cm deep, a compact size that suits small spaces.
At that size it fits the places where a small ornament earns its keep: a bookshelf between rows of spines, a bedside table, a windowsill, a desk or a hallway console. The white and blue colouring sits easily with other blue and white ceramics, crisp white walls, natural wood and pale linen, and it brings a playful animal note to a room without shouting for attention. It also makes a thoughtful new home gift, small enough to wrap easily and a friendly first ornament for bare new shelves.
The figurine is made from ceramic with a gloss finish that catches the light and shows off the depth of the blue. It is purely decorative and needs no fixings or wall space: it simply stands on its base wherever you place it. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it gently with a damp cloth and dry it straight away. Set it alone as a small focal point, or group it with a short stack of books and a plant in a plain pot so the blue spots have room to shine.
