Know before you buy
Yes, this piece is crafted from traditional blown glass, consistent with the artisanal techniques used throughout the Old World Christmas collection.
While the ornament is made of glass, the hand-painted details and glitter accents are applied to be durable for standard holiday display. We recommend handling it by the ornament cap and storing it in a padded box during the off-season to protect the finish.
The glitter is applied as a decorative accent to enhance the ornament's festive sparkle. While some minor shedding is common with any glittered glass ornament, the finish is designed to remain intact with careful handling.
Absolutely. Its realistic design and focus on the badger's distinct characteristics make it an excellent choice for woodland or nature-themed holiday displays.
To maintain the quality of the paint and glitter, avoid using chemical cleaners or water. If dust accumulates, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
