These are great for Christmas and all year round. They sell really well in our store window. They have a good heft to them. We used to get them from Buffalo and Romania but B & R dried up so Voila! - China. About 10 centimeters (or approximately 4 inches) in diameter. There's a glass loop on top for hanging. String not included. Each ball is unique, so you're choosing a style, not an exact duplicate.
