The legs and antennae are lengths of bent rod. The abdomen is a coil. The head is a hollow half dome with two small balls for eyes. It looks like a line drawing of an ant that someone has lifted off the page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach photo carries a red letter from A to D. The letter names the pose and matches the option you pick; it is not printed on the ant.

The supplier's photos with a bottle show other companies' labels, so we left them out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterials and build: iron with a plated finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier lists the material as iron with an electroplated finish. \"Bronze\" is the colour of that finish and says nothing about the metal underneath. In the photos it is a warm brown with darker shading, which gives the ant an aged look. The black version is glossy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe supplier gives no weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize and dimensions: a range, not a number per pose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier's chart puts the four poses at about 10 to 16 cm high and 13 to 18 cm long. The print on that chart is too small for us to give you a reliable figure for each pose. The supplier's text also mentions one overall size of 15 x 12 x 20 cm without saying which pose it belongs to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the photos, pose A is the lowest and pose D, which rears up, the tallest. As for the bottle: 750 ml is the standard wine bottle, and 275 ml is a small beer or mixer bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStyling: bronze for warmth, black for contrast\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bronze-coloured ant sits well on a dark table and next to warm colours. The black one stands out on a light worktop or a white shelf. Either way, give it some empty space around it, because the thin legs and antennae are what make the shape readable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOccasions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGive it with a bottle of wine at a housewarming or a birthday. At home it earns its place on the table when friends come for dinner and the bottle of the evening needs a stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare: a soft dry cloth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe supplier gives no care instructions. As general practice for plated iron: dust it with a soft dry cloth, keep it dry, and skip scouring pads and strong cleaners, which can scratch the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe wow detail: the ant carries the bottle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnts are known for hauling loads far bigger than themselves. That is the joke here. A wine bottle in the grip of a wire ant makes people look twice, and then smile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA home that gives back\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5% of each sale goes to a cause you choose. The causes are matched to 11 of the 17 SDGs, the global goals set by the United Nations, and you decide where your share goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOur promise\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShips from our partner warehouse in China.
