    SPECIAL FEATURES

    I was drawn to this serene young Victorian woman, a beautifully rendered antique paper die-cut. I wanted to accent her with flowers and used an assortment of florals and stamens from my vintage and antique millinery remnants and added silk green ribbon and antique lace to her bodice as well. Then I found the perfect glass counterpart, a vintage double-sided indent with a spindle bottom decorated with hand-painted pink flowers. Inside the reflective pink centers I tucked in more vintage cherry blossoms and then framed both ornament and maiden with rare antique silver loop tinsel garland. If no one buys this one my daughter wants us to keep her!

    Lovingly handcrafted and signed by Gail Giaimo.

    THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND ORNAMENT IS MADE ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY WITH ANTIQUE AND VINTAGE MATERIALS to include: glass ornaments from the 1890s to1950s, most of which were made in Germany; colorful Victorian embossed & die-cut paper “scraps” and chromolithographs from postcards and advertising trade cards, made in Europe between the 1870s and 1910; antique and vintage fabric to include chenille, lace, ribbon and metallic trims; antique and vintage tinsel from tree garlands and old-stock German-made Lametta tinsel; gold and silver old-stock Dresden paper trims, crepe paper, foil, gift wrap, spun glass, and other embellishments. Items described as “antique” are dated between 1870 and the early 1900s (prior to WWI). Items described as “vintage” are dated between 1915 (WWI) and the 1950s (mid-century). We also use Dresden trims (only on occasion) and crinkle wire (always used for durability) made more recently in Germany using techniques and equipment that have not changed over the past 150 years.
