Description
This glass octopus figurine brings a small splash of the sea to a shelf, a desk or a windowsill. Its rounded head and body are deep blue, streaked with swirls of brown and white that run from the crown down into the tentacles, and two round black and white eyes give it a friendly, curious look. The tentacles spread out wide around it and turn to clear glass towards their tips, each one curling up gently at the end. It measures 16cm across and stands 6.2cm tall, so it sits low and wide rather than tall, and it needs very little space.
Its compact size suits a bookcase, a mantelpiece, a dressing table or the corner of a desk, where it adds a bright note of colour without crowding anything else. The clear tentacles catch the light, so a spot near a window lets the blue glow and the swirls show at their best. It sits happily with seaside and coastal pieces in a living room, a hallway or a bedroom, and it is just as at home brightening a plainer, more neutral room. Its cheerful face and curling tentacles give it plenty of character for its size.
The figurine is made of glass, with blue, brown and white swirled through the head and body and clear glass forming the tentacles. It rests on the underside of its spread tentacles, so it stands steady on a flat surface with no base or stand needed. To keep it bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it straight away. It is a decorative piece, not a toy, so place it out of reach of small children. Set it near a window or a lamp and the deep blue really comes to life, and wrapped in tissue it makes a cheerful gift.
