1920s Large Blown Glass Bird Christmas Ornament Embossed Germany Mark Spun Glass Tail

Rare large German blown glass bird Christmas ornament, embossed Germany on the bottom! Circa early 1920s.

This is a wonderful antique figural glass bird ornament. It is hard to find these old ornaments that include the annealed glass hook on top and also the embossed “Germany” mark on the bottom. Certain Lauscha ornament makers of the time thought this feature would add value and desirability to their ornaments, distinguishing them from their neighbor ornament makers.

It is simply wonderful, featuring deeply molded feather and wing details. The beak is super fine, thin, and long. The point tip of the beak still has the tiny ball of glass where the glass blower ended. Wow! It is mostly unsilvered with bright pink wings and a hint of gold here and there. The tail feathers are the original spun glass.

It measures a large 6 inches wide, beak tip to tail end. The blown glass body is 4 inches wide. It is in very good antique condition. The embossed Germany mark is crisp and clear. The annealed hook is intact and complete and the tail has aged to a soft gray. There is a bit of age related oxidation and silvering loss, common for its age at 100 years old!

This is a very early German blown glass hanging bird Christmas ornament in this harder to find larger size. A must have for any antique German or figural Christmas ornament collection, a thoughtful gift for the bird lover!
