I've been racking my brain to remember their history, but the details aren't really clear in my my memory any more. I think that both may have been bought on some family holiday trip in the south of Sweden in my early teens or so - and that orginally, one was kept by us/me while the other was given to my p. grandmother. One reason why the details are blurred in my memory now is probably that later on, my parents moved to live in my dad's childhood home - and I seem to have memories of both ornaments from different windows over time. The only thing I'm sure about now is that at least since 2014, they have both been residing with me!
They're delightful. I love blue glass and a bit of colour brightens up these winter months.
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty. It must be lovely when they catch and reflect the light.
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome, and so unusual. The first one looks like it is dripping ice crystals.
ReplyDeleteI agree they are beautiful. After what feels like weeks of dull days full of dark skies and rain , today we had sun - I would definitely have those ornaments in my home

These are really pretty, I bet their reflections are lovely in Summer when the sun shines on them.
ReplyDeleteMe too, love blue glass. I wonder if it reminds me of water when light shines through it. You could always make up stories about how you (or your grandmother) might have received them. There was this handsome man who saw her looking at one, but she didn't have the funds for it, and though he knew she wouldn't even talk to him, a stranger...he secretly gave the shop keeper...etc.
