Early Antique Christmas Ornament Grouping (c.1900s)
There's a lot to see here; come in a stay a while. If you are reading this, we're pretty sure you appreciate antique Christmas ornaments. So, you're in the right place.🎄
The star of the show us the red mercury glass double indent glass ornament. This German beauty is perched inside of an old tinsel heart. These don't come by too often, especially in such great condition. Dated to the late 1800s - early 1900s.
Rounding out the group is the old blown glass figural ornaments shaped like a fruit basket. The original end caps are faintly marked but difficult to read. (possibly MADE IN USA) The red and gold color has flaked off in areas. In addition, we'll include the small royal blue glass ornament. Dated to the early 1900s.
Special, delicate and relatively rare, our lovely grouping would be an amazing addition to your collection of antique ornaments!

Listing Includes
- FIVE early antique ornaments including a German double indent bulb in a tinsel heart, three blown glass fruit baskets and a small blue glass bulb (as shown)
Item Condition
Good antique condition considering age and use. All ornaments show surface wear, scuffs, scratches plus paint and color loss throughout. Tinsel shows some darkening and oxidation which is normal for the age. End caps worn and darkened. The red and gold fruit basket figurals exhibit flaking color/paint.
All ornaments are extremely delicate and should be displayed in safe location (away from curious little hands).
We recommend cleaning these ornaments ONLY with a soft dry paint brush to remove surface dust. Avoid cleaners or water which will remove color.
