A charming flat dresden ornament of two babies in a wash tub. The baby scraps are highly embossed and one baby has a very tiny bend on the top of the head but it is stable.

The cut-out paper decoration with heart shapes has a tiny bit of damage to the top right corner, but does not detract from the charm of this piece.. Overall, a super ornament.
