12-Point Mexican Tin Star Christmas Ornament, Gold

These three-dimensional stars, made of natural tin and painted gold, will add nice shine to your tree. They are handmade in San Miguel de Allende. They feature a little door that opens to the inside so they can be used as a tree topper or ornament. Another idea is to write a wish and stick it inside. Other larger Mexican stars can hold a votive candle or lights, but these stars are too small for that -- they are purely decorative. Our current inventory are stars with squiggles, as in the photograph.  For more information about Mexican tin folk art, take a look at this blog post! state of origin:  Guanajuatodimensions: about 4.5" across; 12 points
