Know before you buy
The ornament measures 3.5 inches high, 2 inches long, and 1.75 inches wide.
This piece is crafted from traditional glass, consistent with the classic Old World Christmas style. Because it is glass, it should be handled with care when decorating or storing.
No, this ornament is intended for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements may damage the glass and the painted finish.
The ornament is sold as a single piece. While it features a loop for hanging, you will need to provide your own ornament hook or ribbon to display it on your tree.
The ornament is lightweight and designed specifically for Christmas tree display, so it should hang easily on most standard tree branches without weighing them down.
