Bigger than I pictured, and it is closer to a desk piece than a magnet

Bought this as a small extra for a birthday and then kept it, because it is nearer a little ornament than a fridge magnet. It is bigger than I pictured - the wings span about five and a half inches - and the sphere is not a smooth ball: the wing veins are cut into it and the outer wings have fine feather lines etched across them, so it reads as metalwork rather than a printed shape. The gold is an antique brass tone rather than bright yellow, which is what sells it. Magnet strength is fine for paper and photos, though it will slide if you try to pin a thick card or a stack. It comes in a long white box with a window and a foam bed, so mine arrived unmarked and did not need wrapping. Two honest cautions: the wing tips are thin metal and will bend if you are careless pulling a note out from underneath, and if your fridge is brushed stainless without a magnetic face it will not stick at all - mine ended up on the side panel. Nineteen dollars is steep for a magnet, less so for what this actually is.
