Skull Bat on Spell Books Glass Ornament Gothic Christmas Tree Ornament

The bat took the top book.

A stack of grimoires in oxblood and black, corners bound in metal, spines stamped with crosses and clasps. A pale cracked skull leans against the pile on the left. A black bat perches on top with its wings spread wide, the membranes lit deep red from behind. Dark roses fall around the base and a red taper burns at the left edge.

Printed flat on clear glass: the shadow work makes the skull look carved, but nothing stands off the surface. The bevelled rim throws a little colour back when the tree lights hit it.

This one suits a black tree, a solstice mantel, or a shelf beside the tarot deck. A solid gift for the reader in the coven who never quite left October behind. Glass, so hang it high and out of reach. The red keeps it seasonal without a scrap of tinsel about it.

• Material: clear glass disc with a bevelled rim, hanging cord included
• Sizes: Circle 3 in (7.62 cm) across, 8 mm thick
• Care: wipe with a soft dry cloth; store padded, since glass breaks if dropped
• Note: the design is printed flat onto the glass, not etched or carved; colours may shift slightly from screen to print
