Icicle fairy lights

Icicles

— garlands of horizontal wire and "icicles" hanging from it — luminous "icing" of an oblong shape. They are kindred spirits of the fringe (see the relevant paragraph), but have a much shorter length of flowing threads. Icicles can have a melting effect, achieved by alternately lighting the lights under the "ice crust" from top to bottom. This creates the effect of a falling drop. Garlands of this type are used both for decorating apartments and for creating a New Year's atmosphere on the facades and windows of shops or cafes.
