Ornament Handmade Blown Glass Hanging Tree Holiday Decor - Purple

In this review of the Handmade Blown Glass ornament from Totally Blown Glassworks, the bottom line is simple: this purple hanging orb is for anyone who wants a small, artisanal accent that doubles as a sun catcher and a meaningful keepsake. The reviewer found the piece most compelling for its vivid color and handcrafted origin; it stands out on a tree or in a window and brings warm, focused light into a room. For shoppers seeking a thoughtful, handblown gift or a year-round splash of color, this ornament delivers.

Key Features

• Handblown construction: Each sphere is made by artist Dehanna Jones in a Seattle studio, which gives every piece a unique handmade character and slight variations in shape and finish.
• Vibrant purple color: The dense yet translucent hue is formulated to be noticeable indoors while still allowing sunlight to pass through when hung in a window.
• Versatile use: The ornament works as a tree decoration, window sun catcher, wreath accent, or part of a garland, making it useful beyond a single holiday season.
• Gift-ready packaging: It ships in a clear gift box with an artist bio card, making it convenient to present as a thoughtful present.
• Compact size: At roughly 3.75 in in diameter the globe is small enough for tree branches yet large enough to register as a colorful focal point.

Who It's For

This ornament is ideal for buyers who value handcrafted decor and want a colorful, durable accent for holiday trees or year-round window displays. It suits gift givers looking for a small, personal present that highlights artisanal work and comes ready to wrap.

It is less suited to someone seeking perfectly uniform factory-made ornaments or those who need a very high level of optical transparency; customer feedback shows mixed impressions on how opaque versus clear each piece appears, so collectors wanting identical clarity across many items may want to inspect examples first.

• Handmade character and provenance from a named glassblower add sentimental and artisanal value.
• Versatile for use on trees, windows, wreaths, or garlands throughout the year.
