So winningly whimsical you’ll want them always on display—as Christmas tree decorations or as all-season light catchers. This finial ornament set is glass with raised designs and fanciful embellishments.
4" to 6"l. Assorted sets of 4.
Museum Provenance
Recalls ornaments found in our home and community life collections, National Museum of American History, Behring Center.
Every Smithsonian purchase will arrive with a museum provenance card explaining how it is adapted from or inspired by an object or objects in our collection.
These are attractive glass tree ornaments. Two of the four were very similar design & color wise which was a little disappointing...

Lovely, beautifully designed glass ornaments. Wonderful colors that reflect the light nicely. I intend to keep them up in a window for as long as the season allows. They go with almost any decor.

Comments about Finial Ornament Set:
I purchased the set as a gift only to find them in the mall for sale individually and much cheaper. The glitter used comes off continuously, and the design is smeared on one of the ornaments. It looks like a manufacturing defect and definitely clues you into these are mass, machine produced...nothing special.

Comments about Finial Ornament Set:
Bought these on clearance because they looked really attractive in the catalog. When I received them, they were much bigger than I expected and not great for hanging on the tree (our tree was 8 feet high... and I like mid-sized ornaments, not giant ornaments you see out there). Also, i thought they would be a bit more special... I've seen items like this at Crate and Barrel and similar places. But for the sale price, they are definitely worth it. (Not sure I'd pay the full retail though).

These finial ornaments are well made with beautiful traditional colors and design. Old fashioned, light catching beauties for your Christmas tree. Sturdy glass and glitter will become your families' heirloom. Make a nice gift, too, if you're not going to use them on your own tree.

These are not as heavy as I thought they would be and very delicate looking.After seeing the size I am glad they aren't heavier.Won't pull the branches down on the tree.Can not wait to see these on my tree next year,they are lovely.Nice big ornaments that won't get lost on the tree.Like them so much I may go back for a second set.Very Old World looking.Would be beautiful hanging in a sunny window too.
