    ***This ornament is made exclusively with all original 120+ year-old materials and is part of VERY UNIQUE AND RARE listing. Our goal was to re-create the whimsical magic of original 1880’s scrap, tinsel, glass, and paper ornaments that we have always fallen in love with but are so hard to find, and make them available to our collectors!***

    SPECIAL FEATURES
    This gorgeous old balloon is elegantly shaped, with the tiniest dainty hand-painted red stripes. My vision was to use my oldest metallic ribbon and tinsel that would match the age and look-and-feel of the ornament. To do a traditional tie-in with Christmas, I selected two completely different little die-cut boys, one slightly taller, to tell a story. He’s looking over the younger boy’s shoulder to play the carols with the violin while his friend sings.  I tucked them into a basket made with lovely miniature bell in rich red and added a tiny rare Dresden paper railing. Little motto with “abide with me” script and tiny flowers is framed by a silver medallion.

    Lovingly handcrafted and signed by Gail Giaimo.

    Our Signature Style - To Make an Ornament for You that Lasts for Generations! You will know you have a ultra-custom Dresden Star Work of Art because we sign and date each and every ornament, as well as add our gold hang tag with your specific ornament’s unique one-of-a-kind inventory number on it. You will receive your ornament gently packed between layers of tissue paper in a beautiful embossed gold box with care and handling instructions. With over 15 years of experience, we are expert at wire-wrapping each ornament to help protect it against accidental breakage (just like those smart Victorians). We take extra time and pains to meticulously back every scrap to cardstock and old-stock papers to protect these beautiful and fragile illustrations so they will last for generations to come.
