Description
This “Forest House” is a brand-new ornament, made to look like a family heirloom which can become a family treasure to be passed down to future generations.
The small but very detailed forest house fits perfectly to any Christmas tree. The snowy roof is dusted with fine mica and a small fir stands protectively next to the entrance. Light shines from the windows and the chimney is closed with a real iron cap to fix the ornament on the tree.
This ornament exemplifies Marolin's niche of producing mouth-blown ornaments using old molds, then painting and finishing the items in such a way to create a vintage or 'antique' appearance. You will notice brush marks, minor color inconsistencies, rubs and an occasional small scratch, or even what appears to be missing paint. These are all part of the artistic charm that goes into the creation of Marolin ornaments.
The place of origin of the glass ornaments is the area around Lauscha in Thuringia. In the beginning it was just a substitute for real fruit which a poor glass-blower could not afford. With time, the diversity of glass ornaments for Christmas trees grew. Their popularity grew and they became a real bestseller. With this nostalgic glass ornament your Christmas tree will become a special eye-catcher! In addition, the ornament is an ideal gift or to collect.
