On my largest feather tree.They are over 80 years old and do show signs of age, use and storage. Please examine each of the photos. Here are a few tips on how to tell vintage versus new.
Earlier ornaments were light weight compared to todays modern ornaments. They were usually done in soft pastel colors with hand-painted details. Youll notice that the paint may be faded or distressed in areas on vintage ornaments. They were hand blown versus machine made.
Look at the tip on the other end of the decoration. It should have a pontil mark which looks like the hot glass was twisted. Look for names of companies or countries of origin on the stem. Collectible ornaments show names like Germany, Poland, Japan, USA they are marked. Look at the color of the metal from which the stem is made... Older decorations are often discoloured or darker.
