小摆设, 小饰品
a small decorative item, often trivial or of little value, used to adorn shelves or display surfaces
A knick-knack is a small, decorative object or trinket that is often placed on shelves, tables, or other surfaces to add character to a room. These items are usually not very valuable but are chosen for their charm or personal meaning. Knick-knacks can include things like figurines, small vases, or souvenirs, and are often collected over time. While they are not necessary for daily use, they help make a space feel more lived-in and personalized.
