SPECIAL FEATURES
This dramatic topper is famous, as it was recently featured on our new U-tube demo of the two of us making ornaments synchronized to the tune of “Carol of the Bells”! (Visit VictorianOrnaments.com to see demo). Stylish excellent condition antique die-cut angel is a wonderful example of Art Nouveau artistry! She has been meticulously reinforced and backed with vintage Christmas paper and is encircled with antique tinsel roping and wonderful large vintage beaded starburst decoration. Ornament is further enhanced with our best old-stock silver tinsel comet and vintage silver and gold Dresden paper medallions. A sturdy cone decorated with antique silver foil and antique paper holly border fits top branches up to 1” in diameter. HANDMADE AND SIGNED BY GLENN GIAIMO.

EACH DRESDEN STAR ORNAMENT IS TRULY ONE-OF-A-KIND, 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
