Know before you buy
These ornaments are crafted from clear, mouth-blown glass. They are lightweight and hollow, making them suitable for hanging on standard tree branches without weighing them down.
Each apple comes with a discreet hanging loop. You will need to provide your own ornament hooks or ribbon to secure them to your tree branches.
No, these are designed exclusively for indoor use. The delicate nature of the handmade glass makes them unsuitable for exposure to outdoor weather conditions.
Because each piece is handmade by Iittala artisans, there may be very slight variations in the shape and finish of each apple. This artisanal quality ensures that every ornament has a unique, authentic character.
To prevent breakage, we recommend storing them in their original packaging or wrapping each piece individually in acid-free tissue paper. Keep them in a sturdy container in a cool, dry place away from heavy items.
