Over thanksgiving weekend my mom gave me my grandmother s old ceramic christmas tree.
Ceramic christmas tree repair.
About 15 years ago my mom gave me an old ceramic christmas tree she had made in 1979.
Is there anyway i can fix unlikely it would seem or at least diguise the chips and broken top.
Over the years i am ashamed to admit it got a few chips and a few plastic bulbs had fallen out and been lost.
However the tree has some chips in it and the top of the tree that holds up the star has broken off.
More recent pieces tend to be creative in the use of lighting with some functioning as a lamp.
A small bulb inside the tree sends light through them creating the appearance of the many small bulbs being lit up.
Ceramic christmas trees became very popular back in the 1970 s however we have heard of trees dating back to as early as the 60 s.
To make things even more difficult i don t have any of the pieces.
As technology improved in producing clay and molds that could hold correct shapes and create larger sizes ceramic trees became more and more popular projects in ceramics shops around the usa well into the 1980 s.
Older examples may be more fragile.

At the time it was the only tree i had and i was excited to display this pretty old tree in my home.
Some can be traced to the mid 20th century while others were made in the 1970s.
Your antique ceramic christmas tree also probably had a star that fits into the top of the tree.
You can find a variety of shapes and designs too.
