Ornament - Ropes Mansion Autumn

Handmade Ropes Mansion Ornament decorated for autumn with jack-o-lanterns. The stately Ropes Mansion was home to four generations of the Ropes family and is recognized as one of New England's most significant and thoroughly documented historic houses. Filled with the original furnishings, this Georgian Colonial house, which was reinvented as a Colonial Revival mansion at the end of the 19th century, contains superb examples of the 18th and 19th century furniture, ceramics and glass, silver, kitchen wares, textiles and personal objects. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. --- Approximately 4 inches tall, not including the hanging loop. 5 inches wide. --- St. Nicolas specializes in bespoke, handmade decorations. For over 25 years, St. Nicolas has worked with a small charity in Thailand and India that helps disadvantaged rural women find work in their community, sewing decorations at home. Their Indian-made decorations are crafted using the traditional method of Zardozi embroidery, a highly skilled technique handed down from generation to generation that traditionally uses gold wires and jewels to embellish robes.
