Collection: CHRISTMAS | VINTAGE BY CRYSTAL

Vintage by Crystal Christmas

Handcrafted spun-cotton ornaments inspired by antique holiday traditions and storybook nostalgia

Crystal and Ben Sloane handcraft vintage-inspired spun-cotton figures in their upstate New York studio, reviving the rare 19th-century German tradition of spun-cotton ornament making through beautifully detailed heirloom decorations filled with warmth and imagination.

Woodland animals, Santas, birds, mushrooms, folkloric characters, festive curiosities, and whimsical winter scenes are sculpted and assembled by hand using traditional techniques inspired by antique European holiday decorations. Each piece carries the softness, texture, and nostalgic atmosphere that make spun-cotton ornaments so deeply beloved by collectors.

Both theatrical and delicate, these handcrafted ornaments bring a sense of old-world Christmas magic to trees, wreaths, garlands, holiday tables, and winter interiors. No two are ever exactly alike, giving every figure its own handmade presence and collectible charm.

At BON TON goods, we curate Vintage by Crystal for its craftsmanship, storytelling spirit, and ability to recapture the wonder and romance of antique holiday traditions through modern heirloom decorations.

Tip: Spun-cotton ornaments feel especially magical when layered with antique glass ornaments, velvet ribbon, candlelight, and natural greenery for a tree that feels collected over generations.
