Description
This glass jellyfish figurine shows a jellyfish drifting through open water, its rounded bell resting on a cluster of curling tentacles. The bell is a bright blue flecked with warm brown speckles, and a ringed collar of blue and brown sits where the bell meets the body. Below it, swirls of blue run down through the glass and fade into clear tentacles that curl outwards at the tips, so the figure seems to lighten as your eye travels down it. It stands about 18.3cm tall, 9.8cm wide and 9.3cm deep, a size that sits happily on a shelf without crowding it.
Because the colour runs through the glass, it shifts with the light around it. We like it best on a windowsill or a sunny shelf, where the blue glows and the clear tentacles catch the daylight. On a mantelpiece, a bookcase or a desk it brings a cool, watery note to the room. It suits a sea-themed corner, a bedroom dressing table or a living room shelf beside books and plants, and it looks just as good on its own as it does grouped with other glass. As a gift it is an easy choice for anyone drawn to the sea, and it needs nothing more than a flat surface to settle on.
Being glass throughout, it is best set on a stable, level surface away from the edge, where it will not be knocked. To keep it bright, dust it with a soft dry cloth, or wipe it gently with a damp cloth and dry it straight away so no water marks are left on the clear tentacles. Hold it by the bell and body when you lift it, and take care around the slender tentacle tips. Place it where the light can reach it and the blue will do the rest; wrapped in tissue, it makes a cheerful present that needs no explanation.
