Porcelain ornament titled 'Praying Angel Icicle' by Enesco Precious Moments

This Precious Moments angel icicle ornament was produced by Enesco around 1999-2000 as part of their popular Christmas ornament collection. Precious Moments figurines and ornaments, created by artist Samuel J. Butcher, became iconic in American collectible culture starting in the late 1970s, known for their distinctive teardrop-shaped eyes and inspirational religious themes. The icicle design was a special format that combined the brand's signature cherubic angel with a decorative hanging element, making it both a collectible figurine and a functional Christmas tree ornament. These ornaments appeal to Precious Moments collectors, Christmas ornament enthusiasts, and those who appreciate inspirational religious décor. The combination of delicate porcelain craftsmanship, the praying angel motif, and the unique icicle form makes these pieces particularly charming for holiday decoration and year-round display. Collectors value these ornaments for their nostalgic connection to late 20th-century American collectible culture and their representation of faith and innocence during the holiday season.
