The MONGOLFIERA REALE Christmas tree ornament depicting a precious balloon is one of the modern Christmas ornaments that come from the "Fleurs de Jori" collection designed for Alessi by Marcello Jori. The designer has a short story about this ornament that he would like to share with you - "With this hot air balloon, the fourth wise man tried to get to Jesus' cave, but he didn't arrive in time to be born. The Holy Child has already fled to Egypt, but the rubies he brought for him are still there - on this hot air balloon." Would you like to see them too?
The original ornaments from the Flowers of Jori collection feature characters that tell a story and represent allusions to the literary world or the poetic imagination of the designer. They serve as unique and precious gifts and decorations that are characterized by their sense of humor, attention to detail, high quality and sophisticated design. Hang them on your Christmas tree or place them anywhere in your home to create that special holiday atmosphere you wait for every year. The MONGOLFIERA REALE ornament has a flat bottom that allows you to place it on a flat surface - a table top, console table, bookcase or mantelpiece.
The ornaments from the Fleurs de Jori collection are made of porcelain, hand decorated with enamel and shiny appliqués in relief. The gold-coloured enamel is also enriched with a small amount of pure gold, which adds a magical touch and makes the ornaments even more special. The variety of shapes and characters available make the ornaments in this unique collection the perfect gift for your loved ones.
