SPECIAL FEATURES

This is part of a collection of ornaments Dennis asked me to make him for Christmas this year. His one request was to “make them as beautiful and detailed as you can”.  Dennis gave me his all-time favorite Victorian Scrap to go with “some kind of Fancy Glass Treatment”.  This was the hard part, finding something large enough to do this beautiful boy justice. After much culling through all my stuff, luckily this mid-century glass spindle ornament had the right shape and size.  The key was found in tying everything together with the right elements, like over-the-top Victorian beadwork, rhinestones, tinsel garland accents, and silver embossed Dresden paper. Large silk flowers frosted with pinecones, compo berries and holly, bridge the gap between ornament and boy.

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.
