German Cobalt Blue 'Krugal' Christmas Ornament

This cobalt blue glass Christmas ornament appears to be in the style of traditional German Kugel ornaments, which were first produced in the late 19th century. Kugel ornaments were among the earliest glass Christmas tree decorations and were characterized by their thick, heavy glass and distinctive metal caps.

These ornaments are highly valued by collectors of vintage Christmas decorations and antique glass. The vibrant cobalt blue color is particularly desirable among collectors, as it represents one of the traditional colors produced during the heyday of Kugel manufacturing.

Christmas ornament enthusiasts and decorative arts collectors appreciate these pieces for both their historical significance and their enduring beauty as holiday decorations.
