Vintage Christmas Ceramic Trees

Vintage Tabletop Ceramic Christmas Trees

Like holiday traditions, there are a few holiday decorations that withstand the test of time. My childhood Christmas memories always include my grandmother’s illuminated green ceramic Christmas tree.  In the 60s and 70s these ceramic trees became extremely popular. Most of the trees, like my grandmother’s from that time were actually hand painted.  Local ceramic shops sold the trees unpainted and people would paint them.  The individual Christmas bulbs that were lit from a single bulb at the base of the tree could be removed and rearranged around the tree; this was my favorite part. My grandmother’s sweet tree is now proudly displayed at my mother’s house during the holidays and continues to bring a smile to my face.

If you happen to spot one at a thrift store or garage sale you better snag that puppy, but as they gain popularity it’s going to be difficult to find.
