Manufacturer: Poland Vintage Christmas Ornaments
Vintage glass ball Christmas tree ornament marked on the silver cap "Poland" but no specific manufacturer name. This is a vibrant gold ball ornament which is adorned on four sides with fern leaves and circles. On two sides the ferns are on top with the circles underneath, with this order reversed on the other two sides. Both the ferns and circles are decorated with glitter, white micah on the fern leaves and dark gray on the circles (with the glitter on top of a white or clear glue base).
This old holiday ornament has a length of about 2 1/4 inches from the flat part of the hanging cap (not including the loop) to the ball pontil on the bottom of the ball. The round ball has a width and depth of about 1 3/4 inches. Cap with hanging loop is firmly attached for hanging and can't be pulled up/off but can be moved slightly side to side.
We've tried to show varied sides in the 6 images, including the top and bottom. Please note that the camera light causes white and yellow/orange "hot spot" reflections on the smooth surfaces. Please use the zoom feature to examine closely.
Very usable vintage condition but does show a good bit of age/wear/use & storage wear. There are no chips, cracks or pieces missing. However, a good bit of the white micah and dark gray glitter is gone/worn off as often occurs. While the amount varies slightly on each of the four decoration sides, overall less than 50% is still there (please understand that some could come off during shipping as often happens and you may see this when unwrapping the ornament).
On the top perhaps 20% of the ornament, the surface is not the shiny gold color but an orange color (you can see some of this in the images). This does not evenly appear, being an amorphous colored shape. Perhaps something once spilled on this ornament that removed the shiny gold in areas but left an orange base color, we're not sure. There are also a number of similar small orange spots elsewhere. We did not notice this at first and don't think you would notice when hanging on a tree, but you can see this in person if you look for it. This old ornament also has usual wear via some scratches, dots and rubbed spots with scrapes through the gold coloring to show the silver underneath, rubbed spots, other scrapes/spotting/light general surface wear, etc. But all adds to the believeability of age of this piece.
