Small rainbows on the wall of the room
This leaf-shaped sun catcher crystal breaks up the incoming sunlight the way a prism does: the many cut facets split the path of the light into small bands, and these bands wander playfully around the room. If you hang it in a south- or east-facing window, the walls already come alive in the morning hours. The small leaf shape is a classic, kind choice that many people have kept in their homes for years.
Why we call it AAA quality
The cutting of the crystal belongs to the higher quality category, so the cut surfaces are sharper and more even. As a result, the light breaks into clearer, more vivid colours than with simpler pieces. The 4.3 x 6.3 centimetre size is large enough for the effect to be clearly visible, yet does not take up much room on the window frame.
How to place it in your home
The best location is a window onto which the morning or afternoon sun falls. Use a transparent nylon string or a thin cord to hang it from the window handle, the window frame or a small hook. The slow rotation of the crystal creates ever new light situations. Many observe that the rainbows moving on the wall are particularly beautiful in the afternoon hours, especially when the base colour of the room is light.
Cleaning and care
The surface of the crystal is divided into many small cut faces, so dust can settle along the edges over time. It is worth wiping it dry with a cotton cloth once a week. If the surface has become greasier, you can wipe it with a slightly damp cloth and then dry it with another. Chemical cleaners are not recommended, as they may dull the shine. When you take it down from the window, do so carefully so that the suspension eye is not damaged.
What you receive
The package contains one leaf-shaped sun catcher crystal of AAA quality cut, protected in cardboard. The total weight is 34 grams and the country of origin is China, where similar cut glass crystals have been made in small workshops for years. The base material is cut glass crystal; there is no natural mineral origin in it, which we feel important to mention so that you have an accurate picture before purchase.
