Old World Christmas
This cream colored sand dollar ornament is a great addition to a sea life Christmas Tree. According to legend, the sand dollar was left by Christ. On one side, a Christmas Poinsettia is represented to symbolize His birth, and on the other side, an Easter lily to remind us of His resurrection. If a sand dollar is broken, five white doves will be released to spread peace and goodwill.
About Old World Christmas: Old World Christmas is the premier brand of Christmas Ornaments in the country. Tim and Beth Merck reintroduced these figurative designs to the United States in 1979. As a couple who shared a special love for Christmas, Tim & Beth revitalized the art of mouth-blown fine glass ornaments. They offer a vast selection of finely crafted affordable ornaments that can fit anyone's style. Each figurative glass ornament produced by Old World Christmas is hand crafted in age-old tradition using the same techniques that originated in the 1800's. Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds made exclusively for Old World Christmas, before a hot solution of liquid silver is poured inside. The ornaments are then hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations.
