Know before you buy
Yes, it is crafted from traditional blown glass. Because of this material, it is delicate and should be handled with care when decorating.
While the ornament features sparkling glitter accents, they are applied to be secure. However, as with most glittered glass ornaments, you may notice a small amount of loose residue upon unboxing.
No, this ornament is designed exclusively for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements like moisture and extreme temperature changes can damage the hand-painted finish and the glass structure.
No, this is a traditional glass ornament and does not contain any internal lighting or electronic components. It will reflect the light from your Christmas tree lights beautifully, though.
To protect the hand-painted details and glass, store it in its original box or a padded ornament container. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
