My mum had several of these on our tree in the 60’s when I could remember. They are gorgeous to see every Christmas, even now very stunning baubles.

It was fascinating to hear about this spectacular craft! The skill & talents required to create these was incredible!! Also, great photos of the craftsmen & younger child(a boy), too bad they didn’t show the women as well. These baubles bring back great holiday memories!!

Love the stories and the chronology of workmanship! But I was a little surprised (and dare I say, disappointed) that all of the examples were from when I, the last of the Gen Xers, was in high school. Would have loved to see earlier, and more original examples. I really expected these to be 60s, at least, if not earlier. I refuse to believe that I am old enough for things from my teen years to be museum worthy.

Lovely fragile glass ornaments, but is that paint or magic marker indelibly pressed into the fibers of that lovely wicker basket? ☹️

the Tree Top was not blown in a mold, it was blown freehand. the artist will heat part of the cane and then blow out the first ball, press in the "indent" then heat another part of the cane, blow the next ball, then heat the top of the cane, blow the final ball and pull (stretch) it up to create the top.

Very interesting. Very strange to have items from the 1990s treated like relic. I have glass ornaments older and I’ve touched them for years. Oops?

Same, and ours are from the 1960s.
@gnarbeljo8980
@gnarbeljo8980 Год назад
It's been practise for a very long time. With cultural value it's not the age relative to the constantly progressing time that's the point, but the craft and examples of rare technique. If treated right these will be in pristine condition in the 2090's at which point they will be official antiques (100 years signifing time passed for vintage to become exactly that). By then it's not unlikely this technique will be a valuable craft of the past. Although people still have glass baubles moat of them are the post war tech described unless you have collections from the past, and plastics are everywhere these days. Sadly. It's a reasonable alternative for families with toddlers and cats, but now everyone wants cheap and a new "theme" or color every year. To me it takes all the magic out of the tree but to each their own obviously. Happy Holidays!

Enjoyable but my Nanna's collection of vintage glass ornaments and tree topper were easily as impressive if not more, all dated from the 1950's and earlier..

Because art comes from all different eras?

Am always surprised that precious textile and antique items' preservationists don't wear masks when speaking while working on pieces. EVERY time a person speaks there is ALWAYS microscopic and even larger spit expelled. Particularly on textiles this spit ABSOLUTELY causes damage (rot and degradation of fibers).

I was disappointed in the ‘92 frosty manger ornament - all that expertise put into such a basic image? I was expecting something more grand and ornate, with TONS of detail - and then I see this basic stock-art looking image with snow

Alas, they are blown and glittered with great skill and hours of work, and still uglier than tin.

Was so looking forward to watching this... but those bright blue gloves are so overpoweringly distracting and glaring, it was real work to keep concentration on the actual object and the information being shared. Bright blue gloves. I mean... really.

What gloves do you suggest? Stretchy disposable gloves don't really come in other colours.
