St. Barbara of Nicomedia (M 007) Ceramic Tree Decoration

I love the symbolism in this piece! The olive branches and flowers reminding us of Gethsemane and the joy of the resurrection. The candle reminding us of Christ's light and love. I've dropped it a few times already and it has held together nicely. Couldn't be more pleased with this product! Would definitely buy again. The printing was as expected on the front. Clear colors. The back where the artist put her brand name was a bit faded, but still readable.

I figured the quality of this would okay, but honestly it is great. The picture came out very clear and now we have can always remember what our Sancho looked like as a sweet lil puppy. We love it and can't wait to put it on our tree next year. The only drawback -- and it's minimal -- is that the gold string to hang the ornament pretty much really is just a string. I will probably replace it with actual ribbon or something next year. I used an image w/ medium resolution taken with my HTC EVO phone, and the ornament came out great. The colors and image are perfect and clear. I tried to use other lower res pictures, but the website warned me that they wouldn't print correctly. This picture didn't generate those warnings and my ornament looks great, so if you get that warning use another picture! Here is the picture I uploaded and the completed product.

A quality, durable ornament. Fun to find the Glockenspiel photo online. Adding the cymbals and snare drum on the back brings back memories of my Marching days in school. Fun to design and another ornament to the tree of instruments I can play. The printing is crisp and bright. I am continuing each year to add ornaments of instruments I can play to a small tree I will leave up all year.
