Hippo Christmas Ornament, Stained Glass Zoo Animal Gift, Ceramic Hanging Tree Decoration

Smiling Mosaic Hippo on a Radiant Glass Sunburst With a Jeweled Border. Ceramic Keepsake for Animal Lovers.

Printed design: Stained-glass-style and carved-look effects are printed artwork on the ceramic surface, not real stained glass, engraving or sculpted resin.

A tree tells you who a family is. This Stained Glass Hippo ornament from Marlowood adds a piece worth keeping: a glossy round ceramic face about 2.9 inches across, printed with a smiling cartoon hippopotamus head front on in mosaic stained glass with heavy black leading, golden amber and tan with grey blue shading, big blue grey eyes and an open pink mouth, against a radiating teal, blue and green glass background inside a wide jewelled border, with the gold cord attached and no assembly of any kind. There is a reason this is ceramic and not plastic. The artwork is UV printed on the ceramic surface, not fired into the glaze. Clean gently with a soft dry cloth and keep away from prolonged direct sunlight. Both faces are printed edge to edge, the 2.9 inch disc is light enough that thin branches hold it level, and the knotted cord sits at the balance point so it hangs straight instead of tipping forward. Storage is easy because it packs flat. Give it to hippo lovers and animal collectors, zoo and safari fans, buyers of suncatcher style decor, stocking stuffer and teacher gift shoppers, or keep it for your own collection. It works as a stocking stuffer, secret Santa gift, white elephant swap item, appreciation gift, coworker exchange, host gift or a small surprise tucked into a card. It also hangs beautifully on wreaths, garlands, doorknobs, rearview mirrors, office desks and dorm windows.

• Glossy Ceramic Keepsake This Stained Glass Hippo Christmas ornament is glazed ceramic with flat UV-printed artwork on the smooth, glossy surface. The artwork is UV printed on the ceramic surface. Use a soft dry cloth for gentle cleaning, and avoid abrasive cleaners and prolonged direct sunlight. Chosen for hippo lovers and animal collectors, zoo and safari fans, buyers of suncatcher style decor, stocking stuffer and teacher gift shoppers, it is built to be kept rather than tossed out in January.
• Built As A Gift For Hippo And Animal Lovers It slots straight into a stocking stuffer, office party swap, thank-you card upgrade, end-of-year token or white elephant entry. It reads as thoughtful to hippo lovers and animal collectors, zoo and safari fans, buyers of suncatcher style decor, stocking stuffer and teacher gift shoppers rather than as a filler item. It ships boxed and gift-ready, so there is nothing to assemble. No wrapping required.
• Artwork You Can Read Across The Room The design shows a smiling cartoon hippopotamus head front on in mosaic stained glass with heavy black leading, golden amber and tan with grey blue shading, big blue grey eyes and an open pink mouth, against a radiating teal, blue and green glass background inside a wide jewelled border. The round format keeps the composition centered, so the focal point is not cut off by the hanging hole. There is no blank back facing the room.
• No Hook Or Ribbon Needed The gold cord arrives already tied on, so this round Stained Glass Hippo ornament is not limited to the Christmas tree. Hang it on a stocking hanger, a bookshelf, a wreath, a curtain tieback, a dorm window, a doorknob or a shop pegboard. It works just as well on a real fir as on a slim pencil tree or a mini desk tree. The cord is long enough to loop over a branch twice if you want it sitting deeper in the tree.
