One clear interest, twelve dollars, and something that comes back out every year.

All of these are ceramic with a glossy glaze, three inches across, on a satin ribbon that arrives already tied, and printed on both faces so they read whichever way they turn. Sublimation bonds the image inside the glaze, so there is nothing to scratch or peel — which is what usually finishes off a printed ornament around its third season.
