A round thing. the blob hollow rings evoke thoughts of a doughnut and are just as versatile as the american treat. you can use it as a napkin ring, egg cup or knife rest. the glossy stainless steel makes the mini rings in red, green, blue and gold glow. they set fresh accents at your table and charmingly show guests to their seats. as tea light holders, blob provides ambience. as the top to a small glass, it calls attention to a single flower. with the matching rubber connector ring, you can expand the blob into a three-dimensional "doughnut". it can now be presented on a larger scale as decoration on the coffee table. by the way: hosts and hostesses find blob simply sweet as a gift.
