Description
This little ceramic house ornament brings a quiet, homely charm to a shelf, with a simple cottage outline picked out in black on a white body. The front shows an arched door with planked lines, two small four-pane windows set high on either side, and a slender leafy tree climbing up beside them. A neat chimney rises at one corner and the roof is softened by a run of rounded ridges, so the whole piece has a gentle, hand-drawn look. It stands 3.5cm high, 3.5cm wide and 2.5cm deep, small enough to sit in the palm of your hand.
We think it makes a lovely little gift for a friend, a small token that says you are thinking of them and will stay on show long after a card has been put away. Because it is so compact, it settles easily onto a bookshelf between favourite reads, along a mantelpiece, on a sideboard or beside a lamp on a desk. It also suits a windowsill or a bedside table, and its white body and black detail sit comfortably with plants, candles and framed pictures in a calm, neutral room.
It is made from ceramic, with a plain white body and the door, windows and tree picked out in crisp black lines that keep the design clear even on so small a piece. It stands on its own flat base, so it needs no hook, stand or wall fixing, and it can be moved from shelf to shelf whenever you fancy a change. To keep it looking fresh, dust it with a soft dry cloth and, when needed, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and let it dry. Wrap it in tissue with a handwritten note and it becomes a thoughtful, pocket-sized present for a friend who loves small homely touches.
