{"product_id":"whale-driftwood-ornament-with-sea-glass-26-5cm-natural","title":"Whale Driftwood Ornament with Sea Glass 26.5cm - Natural","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis driftwood whale ornament brings a little of the shoreline indoors: a weathered wooden whale held up on a slim black metal rod above a chunky wooden base. The whale is cut as a flat silhouette with a blunt head, a long mouth line and a curling tail, and the natural grain runs the full length of its body. A small blue eye sits near the head, and short wire stitches cross the grain along its side, each edged with rusty marks that add to the sea-worn look. On the base rests a little stack of sea glass in deep blue, pale blue and frosted white. The reverse is plain grained wood. It stands 25.5cm tall, 26.5cm across and 6cm deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt that size it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece, a bookshelf, a windowsill or a hallway table without crowding it, and the 6cm depth means it fits a narrow ledge too. It suits a coastal scheme, a beach-house look or any room that leans towards natural textures and soft blues, from a living room to a study or a bedroom. As a gift, we think it makes a thoughtful Mother's Day present for a mum who loves the seaside, and a kind thank you for a teacher who has made the year a little brighter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whale and its base are wood, the upright rod is metal and the little stack on the base is glass. The piece is freestanding, so it needs no wall fixings or hooks; simply set it on any flat, level surface. Care is easy: dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth, and keep it away from damp so the wood stays in good condition. For an easy seaside corner, set it beside a few shells or a pale linen runner, or wrap it with a handwritten card for someone who misses the coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMetal, Wood, Glass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNatural\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.218kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOccasion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMother's Day, Thank You\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is the whale ornament?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt stands 25.5cm tall, measures 26.5cm across from head to tail and is 6cm deep, so it fits a shelf, mantelpiece or windowsill.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the whale ornament made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe whale and its base are wood, the slim upright rod is metal, and the little stack of sea glass on the base is glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it hang on the wall or stand up?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is freestanding.
