Rainbow Glass Wishstick

Rainbow Glass Wishstick

£29.95

Rainbow Glass Wishstick

A spectacular piece of hanging glass that catches the light

£29.95

Jo Downs is a talented glass artist based in Cornwall. She makes large glass sculptures and wall art by layering many strands of beautifully coloured layered glass.

By accident, she invented the Wishstick, a spectacular piece of hanging glass that catches the light, but looks gorgeous even on a dull day.

Hang it near the house, in a tree or large shrub - catch the light and see the colours of the rainbow- we think the Wishstick is much better for the neighbours than a wind chime, anytime!

Comes ready to hang with a sturdy rope loop.

Sophie Conran Secateurs

Sophie Conran Secateurs

£24.95

Sophie Conran Secateurs

Designed specifically for the female hand.

£24.95

Good secateurs are often very difficult to come by, either very expensive or just not up to doing the job. If they get left out in the garden, most secateurs will rust very quickly.

These secateurs are made from a special stainless steel, making them an outstanding cutting tool as well as being rust-free.

As with all the Sophie Conran tools they are designed specifically for the female hand in mind, which means these are both comfortable and easy to use.

A simple brass lock keeps the blades safely closed when not in use.

A very special garden gift and comes in a beautiful tissue lined gift box.
