Hand blown glass icicle Christmas ornaments will shimmer with crystal brilliance on your tree. Set of 13 icicles. Ornaments are by artist Prochaska, Disneyland glass blower for 10 years.
Set of 13
I originally designed these icicles more than 25 years ago to satisfy my wife’s desire to decorate a 13 foot tall live Christmas tree entirely with hand blown crystal. Weight being of primary concern, I chose to make the icicles of lightweight borosilicate crystal which has virtually the same reflective qualities of uncut full lead crystal. The lighter weight material allowed the tree to be decorated with hundreds of these sparkling decorations creating a truly beautiful spectacle. I am again producing these gorgeous heirloom tree ornaments in a limited fashion. As in real life, the icicles come in assorted lengths ranging from 5 inches to 9 inches. To make hanging easier, a symbolic Sheppard’s staff loop graces the top end of each icicle allowing you to use your favorite style of hangers, whether they are easy to use wire hangers, monofilament nylon or bright red ribbons. To insure years of enjoyment, a special Storage Tube is included with your order. These truly unique one-of-a-kind ornaments are ideal for gift giving to friends, family members, and Christmas ornament collectors. Christmas tree ornaments are one of my specialties and during the Reagan administration I was asked to create an assortment of one-of-a-kind ornaments that represented the state of California at the White House. Be sure to visit my profile for more information about my 35 years of glass blowing experience as I want you to feel confident about your purchase I hope you will enjoy this work of art and the memories it represents for many years to come. Set retails at specialty shops for $110.00.
Special note: while somewhat more expensive than plastic or acrylic look-alikes, those materials can never achieve the same glitter and sparkle of genuine hand blown glass.
