3 ANTIQUE 1920S Mercury Glass XMAS ORNAMENTS 2 GERMAN 1 POLAND W CATALOG PICS: $65.00
All three of these ornaments date to the 1920s. There are 2 from Germany (horn and bell), and the long teardrop one is from Poland (cap is marked). Like all ornaments from this era, they are very fragile. They are part of the \"how did these things survive\" category. The two from Germany aren\'t marked, but I am including listings from a 1925 German catalog \"Louis Lange\" that shows the ornaments. Louis Lange was a German publisher in Chicago that sold Erzgebirge and Lauscha pieces at Christmas through his catalog. He sold them wholesale, so you could buy a carton of them! I wish I could buy a carton of them today! The little horns never had caps, but did have little metal pieces in the bottom that allowed them to work as whistles. The metal pieces were tin, and disintegrated, like this one. The finish on this one has worn - it was stenciled white. The bell is just a very fragile bell shape, that is blown glass. The Poland ornament is from the same era, and is marked Poland on the cap. They are all three wonderful pieces. They look their age, but there are no breaks.
