Postage stamp depicts a red Christmas ball with snowflakes against the gray background.
The first glass toy in the Soviet Union began to be made during the First World War in Klin.
In addition to glass, toys were made of cardboard, cotton wool wound on a wire frame; figures of children, angels, clowns, sailors were decorated this way. Fake fruits of papier-mache and velvet were hung on Christmas trees. Star of Bethlehem (six-pointed star, unlike the Soviet one) was fixed at the top of Christmas tree.
