Handpainted Majolica Ornament Ornament
Getting Meta Under The Mistletoe
Introducing our most self-aware creation yet: the ornament ornament! Because sometimes you need an ornament of an ornament to really show your commitment to holiday decorating. It's like inception, but make it festive.
Each ornament (of an ornament) is crafted using an 8th-century Majolica technique that we've mid-century modernized for today's tastes. We start with earthenware clay, add three coats of glossy white glaze, then hand-paint each piece using watercolor-style washes in a dreamy vintage-inspired periwinkle. Those geometric patterns and dotted details? All painted by hand, because we believe in taking our meta moments very seriously.
Perfect for:
- Mid-century modern enthusiasts who appreciate a good paradox
- Anyone who's ever said "but is it art?"
- The friend who loves explaining their ornaments to party guests
- Starting conversations about recursive holiday decorating
- Adding some atomic-age charm to your holiday decor
- Please keep in mind each ornament is completely unique. We embrace the individual variances that make handmade pottery so special.
- Dimensions: 1 1/4" x 4"
- Materials: Earthenware clay, lead-free glazes
- Care: Wipe clean with a soft cloth
- Limited Edition: Yes, and when they're gone, they're gone!
Ready to get meta with your holiday decor? Grab your ornament ornament now and let's make your tree a celebration of self-referential style. Because nothing says "I think about thinking about decorating" quite like a perfectly glazed ceramic ornament of an ornament hanging amongst your holiday lights. (Warning: May cause existential discussions about the true meaning of holiday decorating.)
