Attractive, classic baby gift

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

I have given this cradle ornament to over 50 babies in the last 20 years. I think it is a simple, beautiful, durable keepsake. While it commemorates the birth, it also reappears year after year on the Christmas tree. The silver cradle is less breakable than glass ornaments would be, and I adore being able to have the name and birthdate engraved on it. Please keep this item!

I purchased these over 20 years ago for my own children as keepsakes and am now purchasing for my grandnieces. They are beautiful and something to be cherished for a lifetime. The quality will last a lifetime.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

I bought this for my nephew for his first Christmas, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that it looks and feels like a much more expensive ornament. I will be ordering another as soon as my niece is born in another month. Sometimes you get what you pay for -- and sometimes you get a lot more! Thanks, Lillian Vernon, for selling this quality item.

 
wonderful ornament - why is it gone?!?

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

I started buying these in the 1980s because they were such a unique and stylish design, not 'cutesy' or cheap as most Baby's 1st Xmas ornaments are. I'm absolutely distraught that they've been suddenly discontinued with no warning and I'm sure many other still-growing families that have made them a tradition are in the same boat. I have 7 children and the 7th, poor thing, is going to be the only one without a cradle to hang on the tree.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

These ornaments are so nice. They have a little weight to them. They come shiny and pretty. Mine had a silver cord and not a red ribbon to hang it on the tree. The only con is that the little ribbon on top of the cradle is flimsy and comes off easily.

Great Ornament
By Angel's Mom from Nashville, TN on 11/19/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Bright
Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

Prettier than I thought it would be. The red bow is a little tacky, but they come off easily. Also, I was worried about what the engraving would look like, but my ornaments (I ordered three) were perfect. Would definitely recommend.

This ornament was purchased for my daughter when she was born. It is one of my favorites now. The design is very classic and never gets old. The cradle has held up well and it still as beautiful as when purchased. I definitely recommend.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

Love this ornament! I got one for each of my kids, not only for our tree, but for each set of grandparents and godparents. I also get one as a Christmas gift each year that a friend or relative has a child.

You definitely want to keep this ornament wrapped in paper or, better yet, sealed in a plastic zipper bag to keep out air and moisture so that it doesn't tarnish.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

I was happily surprised to see how pretty this ornament was when I opened the box. For the inexpensive price I did not know what I would be getting. It was delicate looking but actually quite sturdy. It shined beautifully and the personalization looked fabulous. The simplicity of the piece is it's charm. VERY happy with it!!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Silver-plated Cradle Ornament:

This is a cute ornament but not very high quality which I should have realized from the price - don't expect something great. It is also difficult to read the engraving. However, even with the cons, I am glad I bought it.
