10 см (4") x 11 cm (4 1/2"). 100% Hand made. It is in excellent condition. This item is completely unique and one of a kind. It is impossible perfectly replicate!! The ornament was made of using technique which was used in Germany around the turn of the century in 1900 to create whimsical Christmas ornaments. The ornament is entirely made by hand and with great attention to detail. Several steps are necessary to create each character with love & soul. It all starts with an idea translated into a wire frame which will be neatly wrapped with cotton until a new character reveals. After the drying process, the white figurine is ready for the fun part: adding colour and embellishments - carefully collected and stored for "that special one"... Spun cotton ornaments, originated in the Saxony region of Germany back in the second half of the 19th century, during the late Victorian era. These old fashioned beauties were made with cotton batting (and sometime wool batting too), a fluffy, raw looking material made of non-woven fibers.
