Description
This little plastic snow globe holds Marie, the white kitten from The Aristocats, sitting up neatly with a pink bow on her head and a larger pink bow at her collar. Around her is a clear dome scattered with silver and pink glitter, and when you give it a gentle turn the sparkle drifts around her before settling at her paws. The base is a soft pink, printed all the way round with Marie's smiling face, pink ribbon bows and tiny stars, with her name, Marie, written across the front in white letters. It stands 8.6cm tall and 6.5cm across, a small piece that fits easily in the palm of your hand.
At that size it sits happily on a bookshelf, a bedside table, a desk or a windowsill without crowding anything else, and it looks just as sweet tucked among photographs on a mantelpiece. The pink and white colouring suits a soft, pretty scheme, and the glitter catches the light from a nearby lamp so the dome seems to twinkle. Marie's gentle expression and her name on the front make it a cheerful little gift, the kind of piece that brings a smile each time someone picks it up and sets the glitter swirling again.
The whole piece is made of plastic, dome and base alike, and the pink base lets it stand on any flat surface with no hook or stand needed. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, or wipe the base with a lightly damp cloth and dry it straight away. Set it where it catches a little lamplight in the evening, or wrap it in pink tissue with a card for a gift that is ready to give.

How big is the Marie snow globe?
It stands 8.6cm tall and measures 6.5cm across and 6.5cm deep, so it fits neatly on a narrow shelf, desk or bedside table.
What is the snow globe made of?
The snow globe is made of plastic throughout, with a clear dome over the Marie figure and a printed pink base beneath it.
What colours is it?
It is pink and white: a white Marie figure with pink bows sits in the clear dome, above a pink base printed with her face, bows and stars.

The front of the pink base reads Marie in white letters, surrounded by a printed pattern of Marie's face, pink ribbon bows and small stars.
