Women of the Cloud Forest Tufted Titmouse Balsa Ornament

The ornament weighs just 0.64 ounces. Because it is carved from balsa wood, it is exceptionally lightweight and will not cause even delicate evergreen branches to sag.

While balsa wood is soft and lightweight, these ornaments are sturdy enough for seasonal use. We recommend wrapping them in tissue paper and storing them in a rigid box to protect the hand-painted details from scratches or pressure during the off-season.

While perfect for holiday trees, the natural aesthetic makes these suitable for year-round display. They look lovely hung in windows, on indoor plants, or grouped together on a decorative branch or mantle.

Because each piece is individually carved and painted by artisans, slight variations in shape and color are expected. These subtle differences are part of the charm and ensure that your specific ornament is one-of-a-kind.

The artisans use non-toxic acrylic paint to achieve the realistic details. This finish is durable and safe for handling, though it should be kept away from direct moisture or harsh cleaning chemicals.
