I purchased these ornaments because one was first given to me as a Christmas present by a good friend, only to have my husband break it when he was packing things away. Now I have 2 because these come in pairs so if one breaks I'm still OK. The ornaments are lovely and delicate. They glow from the lights on the tree as the glass is very thin and fragile but that's part of what makes them so beautiful. The silvery-gold sprinkles add just enough sparkle.
