A lovely thing

We received a gift of a mobile for the birth of our boy, and it is a lovely thing, airish and luminous like a Miyazaki film (I gave them a copy of Porco Rosso at the birth of their daughter).  My photography doesn't really do it justice, because it doesn't show the slow movements that accentuate the stillness and the balance.  Remarkably enjoyable, and the infant finds it fascinating too. It is from Flensted, a small company in Denmark, and comes in a flat pack for you to snap together.  I think some supergluing may help to produce the lovely rounded nacelles shown in the official photographs. Here is their website (and another photo).
