Ornament of the Day: A Pair of Medieval-Inspired Spears

This interesting pair of ornaments was given to me—I think—the year we moved to Texas, 1987. I’ve always really liked them.


Created from resin to resemble rock crystal, these ornaments have been fashioned in a medieval style with long crystalline spikes surmounted by horses’ heads. One is the pinkish-tone of rose quartz, the other has the milky-look of rock quartz. They’ve got kind of a Knights of the Round Table/chess set look to them that I found appealing in the 1980’s and still find attractive today.
