Balloon Dog Resin Figurine

The twisted balloon dog has become a piece of visual shorthand for modern, playful interiors, and this resin figurine gives you that silhouette in a size that actually fits a shelf. The surface is finished to a high gloss so it catches the light along every curve, which is what separates a piece like this from a flat matt ornament. It reads as deliberate and a little bit witty rather than novelty.

Ten colours are offered, and the choice changes the character completely. The checked black and white finishes are the most graphic and sit well in a monochrome scheme. The brights - orange, yellow, red, green - work as a single hit of colour on an otherwise neutral console or bookshelf. Lilac, pink and blue are softer and pair naturally with pale wood and cream. Grouped in twos or threes at different heights they look considered rather than accidental.

Each piece is cast and hand-finished, so slight variation in tone and a tolerance of one to three centimetres in size are normal and are part of how it is made. The resin is solid, odour-free and heavier in the hand than it looks, which helps it sit steadily on a shelf. Dust it with a dry, soft cloth; avoid solvent cleaners, which will dull the gloss. Keep it out of reach of small children as a decorative object, not a toy.
