{"product_id":"carved-solid-wood-monkey-ornament","title":"Carved Solid Wood Monkey Ornament","description":"\u003cp\u003eSome ornaments are content to sit in the middle of a shelf. This one is not. Carved from solid wood in a perched, characterful pose, the monkey is designed to occupy an edge - the lip of a bookshelf, the corner of a mantel, the top of a leaning stack of paperbacks - so that it looks caught mid-thought rather than arranged. At roughly 300g it has real heft in the hand, and the weight is part of the appeal: this is a piece you notice picking up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is hand carved and hand finished in a natural wood finish, with the tool work left legible rather than sanded into anonymity. That is what gives the face and the shoulders their expression. Styling it is easy enough; a single figure against plain shelving does more than a crowded arrangement, and it sits comfortably alongside ceramics, brass or stacked books. Turn it slightly off-square to the shelf edge and the silhouette becomes far more interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is worked from natural wood, grain, tone and figure vary from piece to piece, and no two carvings come out identical - small differences in colour and marking are a feature of the material rather than a fault. Keep it away from radiators and direct sunlight, and dust it with a dry cloth rather than a damp one. It is a decorative ornament and not a toy, so keep it out of reach of small children.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid wood monkey figure, hand carved and hand finished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight approximately 300g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural wood finish, supplied in the Natural Wood style\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerched pose designed to sit on a shelf edge, mantel or stack of books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural wood: grain, tone and figure vary from piece to piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarning: this is not a toy - keep out of reach of small children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lockhone","offers":[{"title":"Natural Wood","offer_id":58898172019072,"sku":"LH-BWL-0412","price":60.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/4737\/5232\/files\/5f1917e0-e4bd-45b2-bb24-d7d92a8201d0.jpg?v=1788935988","url":"https:\/\/lockhone.com\/products\/carved-solid-wood-monkey-ornament","provider":"Lockhone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
