Salamander - Blown Glass Hand Painted Tree Ornament by Old World Christmas - RETIRED

Salamanders are amphibians that look like lizards, with slender bodies, short legs, and a long tail. The salamander represents immorality, rebirth, passion and the ability to withstand flames. This makes them a symbol of firemen and trucks.

Hand crafted in age-old tradition with techniques that originated in the 1800s

Molten glass is mouth-blown into finely carved molds

Ornaments are all hand-painted and glittered in a series of labor-intensive steps to achieve the beautiful creations

Traditionally designed, hand-crafted ornaments

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.
