Description: Miniature Hand-crafted Mercury Glass style Christmas Tree Baubles for Dolls' House or Miniature Scenes sets of 6 in Handmade Display Boxes1:12 scaleChoice of 9 sets (including new sets for 2024)Miniature recreations of vintage handmade mercury glass baubles. These are not glass, but each is carefully handcrafted and painted to replicate the mercury glass shine and transparent colouring of the originals, including designs with reflective concave surfaces. Paint colours, dependent on collection include vibrant reds, greens, blues, yellows, orange, pink, purple, gold and silver, with some white detailing and glitter finishes. Each set comes packaged in a handmade green gilded display box with white internal partitioning to create six cells, with each bauble cushioned in white tissue. Clear cellophane panel in lid. All baubles are strung on very thin, 38 gauge wire with gold-coloured thread hoops for hanging. I would recommend either gluing to tree branches by their knotted hoops or attaching with thin-gauge wire.Pricing of individual sets reflects levels of complexity in painting, particularly in concave surfaces.Collection 1: Large round or pointed concave baubles, measuring average 6mm wide and 8-12mm long (including wire hoop).

Please note that the listing photo is representative of the specific designs in each collection. These are not mass produced. Due to the unique character of hand crafted baubles, there will be slight variations in the collection you receive. Also, to maintain the shine on these baubles they should be handled as little as possible, as oils from skin will dull the finish over time. Once painted I handle these wearing gloves and hang them with tweezers. For adult miniaturists only - not a toy. Please see my other listings for more collections of miniature baubles, figurative mercury baubles, tree toppers, ornaments, stockings, garlands, wreaths, nutcrackers etc. I will normally try to post within 24 hours of receiving payment where possible. For UK post, I offer my miniatures with free postage - packages are sent second class unless you pay an added fee for first class. Due to the number of orders which have been misplaced by postal services, I have had to start a policy of requiring 'proof of postage' on larger international orders, so that I can claim compensation when parcels disappear to who knows where?! The most environmentally-friendly way to do this is through Royal Mail's collection service. I am now also offering to post via Royal Mail's 'International Tracked and Signed', which is a more expensive option, but which will allow you to track your order.Notice to international buyers not covered by my standard postage options: I will be happy to ship internationally if arranged with me prior to purchase. Please contact me for further info about postage fees.Orders from outside the UK: Please be aware that Ebay may add tax to your purchase at checkout, depending on your country. Ebay automatically remits this tax to the relevant tax authorities. It is also possible, especially post-Brexit, that your country's Customs office may impose import duties/taxes and handling charges on orders as they arrive in their destination country - the only way I can figure out what is being added is if customers let me know that this has happened, so I will update my listings with information as this becomes clearer, but please understand that these extra charges are out of my control. Environmental policy: I am committed to reusing and recycling as much packaging material as possible. I make much of my own packaging from recycled cardboard, and by far the majority of my packaging is recyclable/compostable.
