Measuring 1.5 inches in height, each ornament depicts a historic regional landmark in raised relief with its location name cleanly embossed across the base. The trio includes Neubrandenburg Stargarder Tor molded in teal/green plastic with a brown wash, along with Xanten Klever Tor and Danzig Krantor molded in off-white composition with an antiqued reddish-brown wash. The reverse sides display matching hollow-molded profiles. The Xanten piece retains its original string hanging cord. Condition is very goodoverall, displaying minor age toning, light wash wear to the high points, and surface scuffing consistent with period WHW items.
