Spirit Fox Metal Sign Winter Fox Home Decor

The only warm thing is the fox.

A red fox sits curled in deep snow with its tail wrapped around in front of it, ears up, looking off to the right. The fur is the one saturated thing in the picture, orange over a white chest and white tail-tip, everything else held in white and pale grey.

The winter behind it is built in flat stacked layers, like sheets of paper cut and set one behind another: pointed firs, bare branching trees, drifts and small ferns, with two large snowflakes hanging in the gaps. The edge of the disc is finished with a thin speckled gold line. The layered depth is printed, so the surface is completely smooth and the panel hangs flat.

It reads winter rather than Christmas, so it can go up in November and stay through February. Try it in a hallway, a white kitchen, or propped on a small easel among candles. Good for a friend who keeps the fox as her familiar or animal guide, and for anyone building a quiet Yule table.
