The short answer
Round balloons in gold chrome, each floating on a thin ribbon above its own weight: a small cluster of mini gold chrome balloons sitting on the floor. In our photograph five of them stand in a line along a wall at a similar height, which turns a plain room edge into a run of gold. The weights are balloons too, so every part of the piece matches.

Three kinds of floating balloon
We list three kinds of floating balloon. Ceiling balloons fill the ceiling with their strings hanging down. Tassel tail balloons are giant balloons with a long fringed tail. These are round balloons held at a set height by a weight on the floor, so they stay where they are placed: along a wall, beside an entrance, either side of a table.
How long they float
How long helium holds depends on the balloon, the room and the temperature, and it is not recorded in our catalogue. Tell us when the event starts and ends, and we will plan the delivery time around it.

Questions people ask about this
- Is this rented or built for my event?
- Built. This is an installation rather than a rental, so it is made for your date in your colours, put up on site, and not collected afterwards: it is yours for the day. That is the practical difference between hiring a piece of furniture and commissioning decor, and it is why the quote covers design and install rather than a return trip.
- Can you match my colours exactly?
- We match to your palette instead of working from a fixed set of shades, and that is most of the difference between decor that looks designed and decor that looks like it came from a party aisle. Speciality shades get ordered in for your date, so colour-matched work needs more notice than people expect. Send a photo or a colour reference with your date.
- How much notice do you need?
- More than a rental needs, because materials get ordered for your specific colours before anything is built. A week or two is comfortable for most designs and peak weekends fill earlier. If your date is soon, ask anyway: we will tell you what is achievable with what is already in stock instead of promising a palette we cannot source in time.
