Carved wooden deer statue, flecked with white paint. Intended for all seasons, though it does look decidedly wintery.

The weather didn’t look promising, but once breakfast was finished and the party’s boots were crunching along the gravel driveway, the misty morning gave way to a brilliant blue November sky. Perfect for the shoot. They’d be dining in good spirits that evening.

We’ve chosen to represent the deer here as a symbol of nobility and status - indeed, it’s a prominent motif in heraldry across Europe. But if that isn’t your vibe, the deer can represent many other things, such as purity, strength, honour, nature… It’s all up to you.

JJ reckons this piece will pair fabulously with our range of artichoke finials and decorative wooden pumpkins as part of a dining table ensemble. Otherwise, it’ll make a charming shelf ornament. Its speckled white paint is perfect for adding texture to a minimalist white room.
