This charming Christmas ornament, produced by Lunt Silversmiths in 1978, showcases the company’s exceptional artistry in combining fine sterling silver with rich, hand-applied enamel. Lunt—one of America’s most respected silver manufacturers—was known for its meticulous craftsmanship and elegant holiday collectibles, and this ornament exemplifies those qualities beautifully. Design Materials The ornament features a round central medallion framed by an elaborate openwork sterling silver border. The frame is delicately pierced with symmetrical scrolls and stylized motifs that give the piece a refined, lace-like appearance. Crafted in solid sterling silver, the frame carries a highly polished finish that enhances its decorative elegance. At the center of the ornament is a colorful enameled wreath, detailed with deep green holly leaves, bright red berries, and a festive red bow. The enamel work is crisp and vivid, adding cheerful contrast to the silver setting. At the heart of the wreath is a silhouette-like central cartouche, creating a dimensional layered effect that draws the eye to the ornament’s focal point. Reverse Side Markings The back of the piece is neatly engraved with: “1978” “Merry Christmas” in elegant script “Sterling Frame by Lunt” These inscriptions authenticate the ornament as an original 1978 Lunt release and confirm the sterling silver composition of the frame. The smooth reverse surface further highlights the craftsmanship and care typical of Lunt’s holiday pieces. Symbolism Appeal The holly wreath—an enduring emblem of Christmas tradition—symbolizes welcome, festivity, and the enduring spirit of the season. The addition of rich enamel brings warmth and color, making the ornament a standout display piece whether on a Christmas tree, in a shadow box, or as part of a curated sterling silver ornament collection. Collectibility As a dated ornament produced during the height of Lunt’s collectible silver era, the 1978 edition holds strong appeal for collectors of vintage sterling Christmas...
