BLOWN GLASS ANTIQUE RAISED BUTTERFLY ORNAMENT WITH ORIGINAL AGED HANGER CAP IS AN ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL EXAMPLE OF OLD GERMAN CRAFTMANSHIP. PLEASE SEE OFFER BELOW. Back when Christmas trees used candles instead of electric lights, ornaments with faceted indentations were a great way to add sparkle and reflect the light. This shape stayed popular throughout the early 20th century and experienced a resurgence mid-century. "One of the most important indicators that an ornament is vintage is patina, or the wear that comes with age. Antique and vintage Christmas ornaments will show some wear, even if they are in excellent condition. You'll see the mercury glass flaking off a bit or the metal taking on a dull appearance from tarnish. Painted details may be a little worn or scratched. This wear can add to the beauty of the ornament and help you tell the difference between it and a newer reproduction."
