Ceramic Ornaments with Nature Inspired Natural Evergreen Plant Impression Christmas Holiday Decoration
Champagne Gold - Set of 5 - ETSY'S PICK
----------------------------------------
I have hand-sculpted these nature inspired clay ornaments from white clay and impressed real evergreen plant twigs into the clay. The plants I have used range from Eastern red cedars, spruces, junipers, redwood, giant sequoia to conifers. The clay ornaments have a plant impression on both sides, not the identical one, but from two different twigs of the same plant species.
After firing these clay ornaments are finished with an elegant champagne gold acrylic finish in a distressed look. This particular gold paint has really fine "diamond" dust in it giving the ornaments this beautiful delicate glitter sheen when displayed in incandescent light or sunlight. Please note that the "diamond" glitter will only show its true beauty in incandescent light or sunshine, so if you plan on displaying your ornaments in mostly shadowy daylight conditions, you might want to chose my regular gold finish. The clay ornaments are suspended from pale golden shimmer ribbons - the actual style and material of the ribbons may vary based on availability. The cut ends of the ribbons are treated with anti-fray, so they will stay pristine through any handling they may receive.
The clay ornaments are cut in different shapes, the small size measures at least 1 1/2 inches on one of the sides, the medium size measures at least 2 1/2 inches on one of the sides, the ornaments are appr. 2/8 inch thick. Due to the ornaments' hand-sculpted nature please allow for variations to these measurements, as they are averages and guidelines only - I generally cut the ornament into the shape that best suits the twigs impressed into it, some are more square, some elongated, most end up as rather balanced rectangles. The top edges are either cut straight, rounded or as a slant.
This listing is for a set of five (5) ornaments Please note, that the listing pictures are representative of the clay ornaments you will receive and you may not receive the exact ones pictured. Each set will include five different clay ornaments, meaning five different evergreen plant impressions and varying shapes. If you have a preference for a specific evergreen plant, feel free to make a comment on your order and I will make sure your set includes at least one impression of that plant species, if available. If you prefer a specific shape, you may also request that.
Due to the seasonally neutral design of these champagne golden clay ornaments, they can actually be used year-round, they will grace your Christmas tree wonderfully, make very attractive gift package adornments, and can be used in many nature inspired decorative displays around your home.
