Grimm's Squirrel Candle Holder Decoration

It is a small hand painted decorative figure of a squirrel. Made from lime wood, it is meant to add charm to birthday decorations and celebratory displays on special days. It is a display piece for tables, window sills and nature scenes rather than a toy for hands-on play by young children.

The figure is hand painted lime wood finished with a non-toxic water based colour stain. Since each one is painted by hand, small differences in colour and wood grain appear from piece to piece. These natural variations give every squirrel its own look and are part of the handmade character rather than a fault.

No. The maker marks it as a decorative item that is not suitable for playing, with a recommended age of 14 and over. It is intended for display, not for active play. Keep it away from babies and toddlers who could put a small figure like this into their mouths.

The figure stands 6cm in height. This compact size lets it sit neatly on a birthday table, a window sill or a nature table, either on its own or grouped with other small figures. The modest scale makes it easy to build up a fuller display when you gather several figures together.

You can place it on a birthday table, a window sill or a nature table to create a special atmosphere for an occasion. Setting up small decorative scenes that change with the seasons is a lovely way to use it, choosing figures that carry meaning for your child such as a favourite animal or story.

The squirrel is one of many small figures in the range that can be arranged together for celebrations. Choosing several lets you build a seasonal scene that changes through the year. Browse more matching figures in the Grimm's Celebrations collection at /collections/grimms-celebrations.
