Pickle Inge Glas Christmas Ornament NEW
Pickle Inge Glas Christmas Ornament NEW
NEW Gorgeous Pickle Christmas Ornament made by Inge-Glas in Germany. What a rare find and absolutely beautiful with gorgeous detail and color. The pickle ornament was considered a special tree decoration by many families in Germany.
There, the fir tree was decorated on Christmas Eve. It was always the last ornament to be hung on the Christmas tree, with the parents hiding it in the green boughs among the other ornaments. When the children were allowed to view the tree on Christmas morning, they would begin gleefully searching for the pickle ornament. For they knew that whoever first found that special ornament would receive an extra little gift left by St. Nicholas for the most observant child.
Each ornament is mouth blown and hand painted in the Inge-Glas workshop in Neustadt, Germany; a business owned and operated by the Muller-Blech family for 14 generations, since 1596. Dating back to the 1850's the Inge-Glas collection includes more than 6000 antique molds, many of which are re-introduced each year. Preserving the 410-year-old family tradition of glassblowing, every ornament is handcrafted in limited quantities. Each ornament from 1987 forward, carries the 5 - Point Star Crown of Inge-Glas, your guarantee that you possess a mouth blown, hand painted German Christmas ornament. Old World Christmas of Spokane Washington was the exclusive distributor for Inge Glas ornaments until 2000. Measuring 2.8" tall.
