Description
This heart-shaped slate plaque carries a watercolour barn owl, perched on a branch with its pale face turned to one side and its wings washed in russet red, soft pink and grey. The owl sits on a white surface framed by the slate's natural, gently uneven edge, and a small tag on the hanging cord reads "Become a little wiser every day", a quiet line that suits the owl well. The plaque measures 15cm tall and 15cm across, and it is just 0.5cm thick, so it is a neat piece that fits a narrow stretch of wall or the side of a cupboard.
The cord is threaded through two holes near the top and knotted at the back, so the plaque hangs from a small hook, a nail or a door knob with nothing extra to fix. We like it in a hallway, by the back door, on a kitchen wall or hung from a dresser, where the owl's warm colours sit against painted wood, plaster or brick. It suits a bedroom door or a reading corner indoors too, as a gentle reminder each morning to keep learning. Because its words fit any day of the year, it makes an easy, thoughtful gift whenever you want to send someone a kind word.
The heart is made from slate, with a white face that carries the owl and a white back, and its edges keep the slate's rough, natural texture. The cord and the small tag give it a soft, countryside feel against the cool stone. Dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, and keep it away from water to look after the design. Hang it at eye level beside a mirror or a small framed print for a pretty wall display, or tie a ribbon through the cord and give it wrapped in tissue paper as a gift with a gentle message.
