Crackle Evergreen, 8"

5.0
Rated 5.0 out of 5 stars

$202.50

The crackle is born in the moment the hot glass meets cool water during the glassblowing process. The result is a fine, frost-like surface alive with refracted light from every angle, especially when illuminated from below. It adds texture to a forest display and layers beautifully alongside other evergreens to create something genuinely worth looking at.

Please note: Seconds are structurally sound and functional, but may include bubbles, surface marks, or a slight wobble from the handmade process. Appearance may vary from the image shown.

Seconds are final sale and excluded from gift wrapping.

Frequently asked questions

Seconds are fully functional pieces that don’t meet our strict visual standards. Because every item is made by hand, small variations naturally occur throughout the making process. Some seconds reflect the learning curve of new artisans or the refinement of a new design, while others simply fall outside our tolerance guidelines. When this happens, the piece is designated as a second and offered at a reduced price.

Seconds are typically offered at 10%–30% off the original price, depending on the piece.

Seconds may include subtle differences in shape, size, or finish. Common variations can include:

1. Slight dimensional differences beyond our tolerance range, typically ⅛"– ½".
2. Small bubbles within the glass.
3. A gentle wobble that does not affect stability.
4. Occasional stones or cords in the glass, which reflect the molten material and furnace environment.

These variations are visual in nature and part of the handmade process. Pieces that are unsafe, sharp, or unstable are never offered as seconds.

No. Because seconds celebrate variation, each piece is unique and may differ from the product photography shown. That individuality is part of what makes seconds special.

No. All seconds are final sale.

Seconds are not eligible for gift boxing or wrapping. However, you may contact our Customer Care team to purchase a gift box separately if available. Gift messages may still be added at checkout.

    Another great addition to the collection!

    I bought two of these; they are both fantastic. I finally realize what they must be looking at to judge it they are seconds. These two are the same trees but look slightly different. Which is ok because I view each of these as unique handmade pieces.

    They both look fabulous.

    Tree forest

    This is my 5th evergreen that I’ve purchased. I now have a nice selection of different sizes of trees. This is my first crackle evergreen and it’s beautiful . I would not know why it’s considered a second. I look forward to putting them on display this fall.

    Perfect “Second”

    I have never been disappointed in a Simon Pearce “second.” Since these are all unique creations, a slight imperfection only adds character! I have yet to find the perfection though! Always enjoy my collection of Simon Pearce evergreens!
