Description
Antique spun cotton/cotton batting Christmas ornament in a faded turquoise-blue color with scattered mica-style flakes and an early wire hanging assembly. The ball is formed from layers of fibrous cotton material rather than glass and has wonderful primitive, handmade character.
• Approximately early 20th century; exact age and origin unknown
• Spun cotton/cotton batting construction
• Turquoise-blue coloration with scattered mica-like reflective flakes
• Original-style aged wire hanging assembly remains attached
• Significant age-related discoloration, fading, staining and surface wear
• Loose/exposed fibers, embedded debris and oxidation to the wire are present
• Unmarked; maker and country of origin unknown
The substantial aging and imperfections have been left untouched. An interesting survivor for an antique Christmas, Victorian-style, or early holiday ornament collection.
