Know before you buy
Yes, each ornament is meticulously hand-blown from glass. Because it is a delicate material, it should be handled with care when decorating.
The ornament features a standard loop for hanging, but it does not include a hook or ribbon. You will need to provide your own ornament hanger or string to display it on your tree.
No, this piece is designed exclusively for indoor use. Exposure to outdoor elements like moisture and extreme temperature changes can damage the hand-painted finish and glass structure.
To protect the hand-painted details and glitter accents, store the ornament in a padded box or its original packaging. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
The ornament features delicate glitter accents that are securely applied. While some minor shedding is normal for glittered items, it is designed to maintain its sparkle over many seasons with proper handling.
