Wood Effect Robin on Branch Resin Christmas Ornament - Grey

This wood effect robin ornament brings a quiet, wintry touch to a shelf or mantelpiece. The plump little bird is made in resin, also known as polystone, and finished in a warm stone grey with a textured surface that gives it the look of weathered, grained wood. Pale scroll patterns trail across its wings and breast, and a fine dusting of glitter catches the light. A sprig of green pine sits at its front, gathered around two pine cones and three red berries, each tipped with frosty white. It stands 15cm tall, 9cm wide and 14cm deep, so it holds its own on a windowsill without crowding it.

Set it among your Christmas greenery on the mantelpiece, at the centre of a festive table, on a hall console or on a bookshelf, where its neutral grey sits as happily with rustic wicker and linen as it does with silver and white decorations. The robin has long been the bird of the British winter, and this one feels at home in a cottage sitting room just as much as in a pared-back modern living room or kitchen. It makes a thoughtful Christmas gift, and an easy way to add a seasonal note to a room without bringing out boxes of decorations.

The robin rises from a round, stepped base with a bark-like texture, so it stands on any flat surface and needs no hook or wall. The pine sprig, cones and berries are fixed at the front of the figure, so there is nothing to arrange. To keep it looking fresh, dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth or a small soft brush, working carefully around the pine needles and frosted berries, and keep it away from water. For a simple winter scene, pair it with a few real pine cones and a sprig of fresh holly.
