Know before you buy
No, this ornament is designed exclusively for indoor use. Because it is crafted from delicate blown-glass, it should be kept in a climate-controlled environment to prevent damage from moisture or temperature fluctuations.
Like most traditional glass ornaments, it is fragile and requires careful handling. While the glass is durable for its type, it should be stored in a padded box or container during the off-season to protect the intricate hand-painted details and glitter finish.
The ornament features a delicate glittered finish that is applied during the crafting process. While it is designed to stay intact, you may notice a small amount of loose glitter upon unboxing, which is typical for this style of decoration.
No, this ornament is lightweight and designed specifically for hanging on standard Christmas tree branches. It will not cause drooping or bending on a healthy, sturdy tree.
Because each piece is individually hand-painted, there may be very slight variations in the brushwork or color application. This is a hallmark of the Old World Christmas crafting process and makes each ornament unique.
