This is the first desk ornament I have actually kept on my desk.
It just glides along while I work. I catch myself watching it between calls.
Gave it to a friend who loves marine life. She sent me a video of it moving the same night.
The wood is lovely and the movement is what I hoped for. Just make sure you have a spot where the wings can move freely.
Looks right at home with my books and plants.

I like that it feels mechanical rather than like a random moving ornament.
The movement is lovely. The natural wood has more variation than the photos, which I like, but it is worth knowing.
I love the shape and the grain. It takes a bit of space when the wings move, so leave room around it.
I was only looking for something small for my desk. Now I turn it on every time I sit down.
The grain is different on each wing, which makes the whole thing feel more like a handmade object.
The motion is gentle and a little hypnotic. Exactly the sort of odd, lovely thing I wanted for my office.
The photos look nice, but the moving wings are the whole point. It feels much more alive in motion.

My son calls it the flying fish. He is not technically right, but I am not correcting him 😄
I do like the way it moves. For my big console table it feels a bit lost, so I moved it to my desk.
I like it a lot. The wings look delicate, so I am careful where I put it.
Beautiful on the shelf. I would not leave it running all afternoon, but it is great to switch on for a while.
The wood feels warm next to all the metal and glass on my desk.
A tiny bit of ocean next to my monitor. Love it.
Got this for my dad. He has already shown it to everyone who has walked through the door.
There is something really relaxing about the slow wing movement.
My partner thought it was a strange gift at first. Five minutes later they were asking how to turn it back on 😂
Really happy with it. I pictured something bigger for my entryway, so it ended up on a shelf instead.
I keep it by the window, out of the direct sun. The wood looks gorgeous there.
My brother is hard to shop for. He loved this weird little ray.
Everyone asks what it is. Then I tap the base and they get it.
The movement is smooth and easy to watch. I find myself slowing down for a minute when I turn it on.
tbh I bought it because it looked unusual. Kept it because it is genuinely lovely to watch.
