Christopher Radko 1996 'Frosty Weather' Starlight Members Only Gift Ornament Box

This item is the original presentation box for a vintage Christopher Radko Christmas ornament titled 'Frosty Weather.' The box displays a high-contrast black background with elegant gold-foil lettering and border detailing. Central to the design is the signature Christopher Radko eight-point star logo, positioned above the brand name and the production year of 1996. The box specifically identifies the piece as a '1996 Starlight Members Only Gift,' indicating its status as a limited-edition collectible available exclusively to members of the Starlight family of collectors during that specific year. The gold foil remains largely vibrant, though there are minor indications of surface wear consistent with age, such as slight abrasions on the black surface and softening of the box edges. This packaging is a hallmark of the mid-1990s era of Radko collectibles, which is widely considered a high-point for the brand's production quality and hand-painted glass craftsmanship. The presence of the original, specific-issue box significantly enhances the provenance and market value for serious holiday ornament collectors, as it verifies the exclusivity of the 'Frosty Weather' snowman-themed glass ornament it originally housed.
