Vtg Tampa Bay Mold Ceramic Lighted Christmas Wreath 11.5\" White Flocked Red Bow For Sale

Up for sale is a beautiful, authentic 11.5\" Vintage Ceramic Lighted Christmas Wreath manufactured by the renowned Tampa Bay Mold Co. This is a classic two-piece nostalgic holiday decoration popular during the 1970s and 1980s.

Instead of the common green, this piece features an elegant cream/off-white faux-flocked glazed finish. It rests securely upon its iconic, glossy deep-red ceramic ribbon bow base. The underside of the base proudly features the stamped factory mark: \"© TAMPA BAY MOLD CO.\"

FEATURES & CONDITIONS:

- Functionality: Fully pre-wired dual-socket internal base. It lights up beautifully, casting a bright, even festive red glow into the hollow frame.

- Light Pegs: Illuminated by striking translucent red cardinal bird plastic peg lights. Please note: A few of the bird pegs are missing from their slots (as pictured), which is typical for holiday decor of this vintage age. Replacement pegs can be easily sourced online.

- Ceramic Finish: Displays beautiful, authentic, and completely stable \"crazing\" (fine web-like crackle lines in the glaze) that naturally confirms its vintage age and pedigree.

- Base Imperfection: There is one very minor flake/flea bite chip on the inner rim of the red bow base (see close-up photo). This is largely hidden when the wreath is fully seated on the stand and does not affect structural stability.

This stunning piece of nostalgic Americana makes an exceptional centerpiece, mantle display, or addition to any retro ceramic tree collection!
