Striped glass bauble, hand made by Scott Benefield in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland.

We make a limited number of handblown glass baubles in the run-up to the holiday season. The classic white striped bauble is our mainstay, and is made each year, but we also do some variations on that from time to time. These  ornaments are eggshell-thin so they won’t weigh down the boughs of your tree, and the white decorations stands out nicely against the greenery. Alternately, they can be hung in a window, along a bannister or wherever you need a little Christmas cheer.

Size: approx. 85mm in diameter.

Please note; the beauty of handmade is that no two products will be exactly the same. All items are handmade, this means the product may vary slightly from the image.
