The season of glimmering, glistening lights is here, and this breathtaking coin captures the stunning beauty of a vintage tree ornament using 21st century innovations. It’s uniquely concave to echo the curve of those early glass balls, punctuated with a Swarovski® crystal. Its chiselled indentations are a 19th-century invention to reflect candlelight—a design so enduring, anyone who decorated a tree, mantle or table into the 1960s will have fond memories of unpacking these beautiful heirlooms each year—a treasure!
Canadian artist Calder Moore has recreated the incredible beauty of a vintage tree ornament to remarkable effect. A circular design of chiselled indentations dominates the centre of the coin, with a Holiday-red Swarovski® crystal glistening in the middle. Classic elements such as frosted stripes, snowflakes and delicately curved lines, dots and petals, complete the design.
Our first Holiday-themed coin with a concave shape to mimic a glass ornament.
