Black Football Helmet - Blown Glass Tree Ornament by Old World Christmas

The helmet is an essential piece of protective equipment for football players. The first widely-used football helmets were made of padded leather and resembled aviator's helmets. Football is one of the most popular sports in North America. Game day gatherings and tailgating have become part of the American culture.

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.

This is a brand-new ornament from the Old World Christmas collection. All ornaments in the collection include a "story tag" on the hook, along with the OWC metal tag.
