About this piece
He moves at his own pace. The light, however, moves fast.
Meet The Slow Dancer - our hand-finished disco snail sculpture, covered in real glass mirror ball tiles. He sits. He shines. He catches every beam of light and scatters it around the room like he's been headlining a show for decades. A proper conversation piece for anyone who refuses to take their shelves too seriously.
Handmade in our small Cumbria countryside workshop, each Slow Dancer is finished by hand. The mirror tiles are applied individually, which means every piece catches the light just a little differently. Maximalist, a bit cheeky, and built to be noticed.
