This is a fantastic antique German glass Christmas tree ornament in the form of a cylindrical glass bird cage on a metal clip! Clearly from the Victorian era, this is elaborately wire-wrapped with extra fancy crinkle wire trim at the top. The cage is clear glass with a painted red scalloped rim and a red molded glass ball at the base w it meets the clip. (The cage and ball are one molded piece of glass!) A red cotton bird with Dresden paper wings stands in a green chenille ring inside the cage. A small feather tree sprig with red berry emerges from the clip. 4 1/4" plus original metal clip, light paint wear and very light even soiling from age, great patina. The wire attached to the bird's ring is loose from the base inside but this does not detract. No cracks or chips and the metal clip is still strong and functional. This is very impressive on the tree!. Guaranteed to be old and genuine. Buyer pays $8.00 shipping and insurance. PayPal, money order or check.
