This ceramic Christmas tree was purchased last week. It cost only $2.00 plus tax. Most of the lights were still present, so I had to replace only around six of them. Including the base, the tree stands 13 1/2 inches tall. Without the base, the tree stands 11 inches tall.For newer readers of this blog, my interest in ceramic trees began when I found one in a thrift store and was struck by how similar it was to the ceramic tree on the cover of the Judy Bolton mystery, The Secret of the Musical Tree. I buy my ceramic Christmas trees exclusively in thrift stores, where I find that they consistently underprice them. These trees can easily sell for $20.00 and up on eBay.
