1997 Hallmark Keepsake Victorian Christmas Ornament – Thomas Kinkade – First in Series

Celebrate the nostalgic charm of Christmas past with this 1997 Hallmark Keepsake “Victorian Christmas” ornament, featuring artwork by beloved American artist Thomas Kinkade, Painter of Light.

A special collector's find: This ornament was the first release in Hallmark's Thomas Kinkade collector's series, as confirmed on its original packaging. The ornament also features the triangular number 1 series verification mark on its reverse.

The beautiful oval ceramic ornament depicts an elegant Victorian home glowing with warm golden light against a snowy winter landscape. A decorated Christmas tree stands near the entrance, while visitors gather along the snow-covered walkway. Snow-dusted evergreen trees, a white picket fence, and a soft golden evening sky complete the peaceful holiday scene.

An ornate gold-tone frame surrounds the artwork, featuring raised decorative scrollwork and an oval plaque inscribed 1997.

A white hanging ribbon makes this piece suitable for Christmas tree decorating, while its classic Victorian design also lends itself beautifully to a tabletop holiday display.
