For a desk with no window, this globe is the view: two red cardinals perch on a snowy rustic fence among pines, glowing as glitter drifts around them. Red berries and pinecones trim the brown base, and another pinecone tops the globe. Set it on the desk of the coworker who craves the outdoors all winter, or hand it to a friend in a city apartment who misses her backyard feeder. Known as the Cardinal Perch at RAZ Imports, it stays welcome well past Christmas, through the gray weeks of January and February.
