The pint-sized poet - Shakespeare measures 10cm tall and comes in a colourful gift box, ready to brighten up your bookshelf. 

All the world’s a stage for the incomparable William Shakespeare. Hailing from Stratford-Upon-Avon, the Bard took London by storm in the late 1500s where his plays shocked and delighted audiences.

A particularly dramatic performance of Henry VIII even saw the Globe Theatre engulfed in flames, when a theatrical cannon sparked the thatch roof. Shakespeare’s love for mischief, tragedy, gender-bending characters and wickedly entertaining themes will live on for centuries to come. In black ink my love may still shine bright.
