  • Set of 16 Luxury Nature Collection Christmas Tree Ornaments Vintage Irish Linen
    By Katie Larmour Design
    Located in Belfast, Northern Ireland
    Nature Collection Set of 16 Artisan Irish Linen Ornaments by Katie Larmour This is a luxury box set of artisan made decorative ornaments created with authentic Irish Linen, exclusive to 1stdibs. They are special because they are limited editions from a beautiful mixture of vintage and deadstock fabric in small batches (some even one-of-a-kind) embellished with exquisite copper embroidery and dainty beading. These novelty ornaments are a unique and quirky gift, or a treat to oneself. They are particularly suitable for the holiday season and the ultimate Christmas tree decorations. They are collectible and can be kept as heirlooms. Katie Larmour is an acclaimed Northern Irish designer with a studio based in her hometown of Belfast. Known for heritage textiles, her signature use of Irish Linen and original designs have seen her brand make waves in Europe and beyond. The fabric is 100% pure Irish Linen from a mixture of sustainable sources - vintage, local mill deadstock rolls from one of the last remaining linen mills still active in Ireland today, repurposed antique tablecloths, and off cuts from our own cushion making. As an associate member of the Irish Linen Guild, Katie Larmour Design is listed on their official website as a ‘certified “trusted and recommended” purveyor of Irish Linen goods’. Katie was invited to be an ambassador for The European Confederation of Flax and Hemp (CELC) in 2021. Each set contains one of each of the below: Butterfly Fox Robin Palm tree Umbrella Wellington (rubber) boot Swan Hedgehog Toadstool Beehive Flax flower Oak leaf Pumpkin Pineapple Spider web Rabbit We produce items for all occasions such as Halloween, Fall, Autumn, birthdays, engagement, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas tree decorations, Easter, nautical / coastal themes. There are 16 items included in this set. Measurements: Butterfly (11 x 9 cm) Fox (5.5 x 9 cm) Robin (7 x 7 cm) Palm tree (7.5 x 9.5 cm) Umbrella (7.5 x 8 cm) Wellington (rubber) boot (6 x 9.5 cm) Swan (9 x 8 cm) Hedgehog (8 x 5 cm) Toadstool (7.5 x 9 cm) Beehive (7 x 7 cm) Flax flower (9 x 9 cm) Oak leaf (11 x 6.5 cm) Pumpkin (7.5 x 7.5 cm) Pineapple (6 x 10 cm) Spider web (7 x 7 cm) Rabbit (6 x 9 cm) Expanded notes on images: No.4 onwards: These are product shots of a selection of decorations that may not reflect exactly the items in this set’s listing, the items in image No.1 are what to expect in your order. Use: Our ornament can be used simply as a trinket, hung on a Christmas tree, from twigs in an Easter vase, as tablescaping display centrepieces, wedding favours, and look wonderful attached to the key of an antique drawer or bathroom cabinet and even from the furniture of a window. Care: Decoration only. Does not function as a bag. Not a toy. Do not eat. Do not place near a naked flame. Condition: Each individual item is handmade using traditional artisan tools and skills, this is reflected in the pieces. Although constructed with care and precision, no two pieces are exactly the same, they are rustic in style and look and that is part of their charm and character. Both the fabric or beading may show signs of wear, as a portion of our materials are recycled. Any pre-loved or vintage linen used may have slight marks or patchiness to it, this is to be expected. Some of the deadstock cloth comes in unused rolls and is spotless. The items in the listing are from a mix of fabric sources. A portion of the pearl beads are reclaimed and may show signs of wear and tear including scratches. Our other items: We also have limited edition coloured - teacups, gingerbread men, handbags, lips, oak leaves, pumpkins, seahorses and shells here on 1stdibs. Our brand is known as the original vintage scarf cushion...
