Condition
Good to Very Good. The ornaments appear intact without visible cracks. The box shows moderate edge wear and some tearing on the internal cardboard dividers and plastic window.

Description
Set of 6 vintage Accents by Noma glass Christmas ornaments. These bulbs feature a sophisticated matte gold/satin finish, perfect for a classic or Victorian-style holiday aesthetic. Made in Canada, these are medium-sized spherical bulbs with ornate gold-tone metal caps. They come in their original green and white windowed 'Accents' box.
Key Features
Vintage glass construction (superior to modern plastic), classic matte gold finish which is currently trending in 'natural' holiday decor, original packaging, and 'Made in Canada' provenance which appeals to collectors of North American holiday items.
Authenticity Indicators
Original Noma branding and Canadian maple leaf logo on the box. Noma is a well-known historical Canadian brand for holiday lighting and decor. Confidence: High.
Flaws to Note
Packaging has some shelf wear and a partial tear on the plastic film. Small scuffs or 'flea bites' in the matte paint may be present under close inspection (standard for vintage ornaments). One bulb appears slightly rotated in the packaging.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or Etsy are best for vintage glass ornaments. Facebook Marketplace is a good option for local sales to avoid shipping risks, as glass is fragile and requires expensive padding.
Selling Tips
Highlight 'Vintage' and 'Glass' in the title. If selling on eBay/Etsy, use 'Double Boxing' for shipping to prevent breakage. Photograph one ornament out of the box to show the finish without the glare of the plastic window. Keywords: Mid Century, Hollywood Regency, Victorian Gold, Glass Bulbs, Made in Canada.
