This jewel of an ornament, with it’s fancy gilding and draped crinkle-wire, is sure to impress and would be a show-stopper on your Christmas tree this year! I have had this post card for many years, knowing that someday I would find the right shaped ornament for it. It was actually originally from a birthday card (so maybe not a cupid but a delivery boy in the buff?). After carefully cutting it out and adding some of my own vintage flowers, I added Dresden paper wheels that happened to be an exact match to the ones on the post card, along with antique Dresden paper border for the running board. When I saw this squat oval vintage ornament in frosted pink with bright red stripes, I could imagine running a variety of gold trims across its swirled stripes. These elements added to the gilded magic of the ornament was further enhanced with a gold Dresden paper fence edged with gilded shell border and gave the ornament a Rococo era feel. A true treasure for a collector!
