Gold Textured Ball Christmas Glass Ornament by Wizardi F07M7-28-LH76-23041

This round ball ornament is cast in a pale, champagne-gold tone with a heavily textured, pebbled surface divided into panels by lines of gold glitter running from cap to base. In the photo the bumpy, hammered-look texture within each panel creates a tactile, almost stone-like surface quite different from the smoother ornaments nearby.

Why this ornament: the pebbled, hammered texture gives it more visual depth than a smooth ball finish; the glitter-lined panels divide the surface into clean sections that draw the eye around the whole ornament rather than to one spot; the pale champagne-gold tone is softer and less reflective than a bright metallic gold, giving it a more matte, vintage character.

What's included: one gold textured glass ball ornament with a hanging loop attached.

As a hand-blown glass piece, it should be hung and removed by the cap and handled gently since the raised texture is more prone to chipping than a smooth surface. It works well on garlands and wreaths in addition to the tree, and suits use as a gift-wrap accent.

Its muted, champagne-gold finish and heavy texture suit rustic, natural, or vintage-inspired Christmas schemes, and the tactile surface gives it a distinct feel among smoother ornaments for collectors who like variety in texture.
