Ceramic Christmas Tree with Peg Lights

This is a vintage-style ceramic Christmas tree, characterized by its vibrant green glaze and textured surface designed to mimic pine needles or branches. The tree is adorned with numerous multi-colored plastic "peg" lights inserted into pre-drilled holes, including translucent orange, blue, red, and green lights. These conical plastic lights would typically glow when the internal light source of the ceramic tree is illuminated. A clear, faceted star serves as the tree topper, suggesting it is also designed to be lit from within. The overall construction appears to be molded ceramic, likely from a single piece for the tree body, with a noticeable sheen from the glaze. The design features distinct, layered tiers, giving the tree a full and classic silhouette. There are no immediately visible signs of cracks or significant chips, suggesting the item is in good, intact condition for its age. The underside, though not fully visible, would typically have a circular opening for the light bulb and power cord. These ceramic trees were popular from the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1970s and 80s, often made from molds and fired in kilns, sometimes as hobbyist projects. The craftsmanship appears competent, with consistent glazing and precisely drilled holes for the lights. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible in the provided images, but such marks are usually found on the base.
