"Searching for acorns"

Bring a little woodland magic indoors with this hand-crafted red squirrel ornament from Nobile Glassware. Inspired by one of Britain's most cherished, and increasingly rare creatures, each squirrel is lovingly shaped through a careful process of layering coloured glass and fusing it in a kiln, meaning no two are ever quite the same.

Perched on a sunlit windowsill, mantelpiece or bookshelf, it catches the light and stirs memories of quiet forest walks and rustling leaves. A heartfelt gift for nature lovers, or a tiny, glowing keepsake to treasure in your own home.

Established in 1993, Nobile Glassware is a UK-based supplier of handmade glass and giftware, renowned for its in-house designed and exclusively manufactured collections - making each piece highly collectable and sought-after.

The intricate process begins by blending the finest raw materials and heating them to 2400°F (1315°C) until they transform into glass. The temperature is then carefully reduced so the molten glass becomes workable, allowing craftsmen to gather, blow, and shape it using techniques and tools that are centuries old, before pieces are slowly cooled in an annealer over hours or days. Slight variations in colour, size, or tiny bubbles are the hallmark of the maker's hand - a proof of authenticity.
